A great opportunity to support regional food banks, including SEMO Food Bank.

For a limited time, Gallery Seats to see Jason Aldean are available for $200 (regularly $350). Even better: 100% of proceeds directly support hunger-relief efforts at Arkansas Foodbank, Food Bank of Northeast Arkansas, and Southeast Missouri Food Bank.

That means your ticket doesn’t just get you into an incredible show: It helps put food on the table for families, children, and seniors across our region.

If you’ve been thinking about going, now is a great time to grab your seat and make an impact.

And if you can’t attend, sharing this post helps spread the word.

This World Health Day, we’re celebrating something simple, but powerful: Healthy food can help people feel better.

Through Southeast Missouri Food Bank’s Produce Prescription Program, providers with Mercy Hospital Southeast and the VA can “prescribe” fresh fruits and vegetables to patients. Then, participants receive produce boxes twice a month, along with nutrition advice and recipes.

Because food isn’t just fuel: It’s care, comfort, and a path to better health.

Earlier this week, some of the SEMO Food Bank team spent time in Jefferson City connecting with lawmakers and sharing more about our work and the real impact hunger has on neighbors and communities across Southeast Missouri.

We’re truly grateful to the many legislators who took time from their busy schedules to meet with us, listen, and engage in meaningful conversation about how we can work together.

We’re encouraged by the shared commitment to strengthening our communities and helping ensure every neighbor has access to the food they need to thrive.

Food date labels can be confusing: but they don’t all mean the same thing.

“Best by,” “sell by,” “use by,” and “freeze by” dates are often about quality and freshness, not a hard stop on safety.

Understanding the difference can help reduce unnecessary waste and make the most of the food you have at home.

When in doubt, trust your senses: look, smell, and feel can often tell you more than the date on the package.

We’ve broken down what each label really means to make it easier to understand.

April is Volunteer Appreciation Month, and at Southeast Missouri Food Bank, it’s about more than just saying thank you.

Because our volunteers aren’t extra help. They’re essential. They are at the heart of the fight to end hunger.

Every senior box packed. Every Backpack for Friday bag assembled. Every donation sorted, none of it happens without people choosing to show up.

And that matters.

Because 1 in 6 of our neighbors is facing hunger in Southeast Missouri. Seniors, kids, and families across our region are counting on meals that only move when volunteer hands make it happen.

So, from all of us at the Food Bank, thank you to our volunteers. We appreciate you more than we can say.
