New Location for Ballard Food Bank Breaks Ground | Eater Seattle

"I read that the Ballard Food Bank broke ground on a new, owned facility at 1400 N.W. Leary a few blocks from its current site; the 11,000-square-foot building—more than double the size of the current space—is expected to be finished by next fall and will allow the organization to expand into areas like Licton Springs and Bitter Lake and reach 1,700 households per week by 2022. That increased capacity is framed as crucial during the pandemic amid rising food insecurity and supply shortages, and the current location will remain open until the new spot opens." - Gabe Guarente
