Today, we joined our fellow New Jersey food banks – Community FoodBank of New Jersey, Fulfill, Mercer Street Friends, and NORWESCAP – for the annual Feeding New Jersey Conference.

We were #grateFULL to hear from some incredible guests, including NJ Assembly Speaker Craig J. Coughlin, NJ Deputy Commissioner for Social Services Michael J. Wilson, and Executive Director of the NJ Office of the Food Security Advocate Mark Dinglasan. Their presence speaks to how seriously the state is taking food security and the power of having advocates at the table.

A huge THANK YOU to our pantry partners who made the trip to be part of a day of learning, connection, and shared purpose. You are the backbone of this work.

The dishes have been judged. The scores have been tallied. And the title of Chop Hunger Champions belongs to: Burlington County Institute of Technology! 🏆(Cornflake-encrusted croquettes seasoned with bell peppers, onions and garlic, served on sunflower chickpea hummus and garnished with julienne apples and parsley... Yeah, they came to WIN.)

A big THANK YOU to all eight teams who brought their creativity and heart to Chop Hunger 2026. We are so #grateFULL to our incredible judges, sponsors, and everyone who came out to support South Jersey neighbors. You made Thursday night one for the books!

One year in, and the impact speaks for itself. Last week, NJ's Feeding America food banks, America's Grow-a-Row, MARC, and the NJ Department of Agriculture celebrated what's possible when we work together. More than 2.6 million pounds of fresh, locally grown produce staying in New Jersey to help feed neighbors across all 21 counties! #ThankFULL for these impactful collaborations and partnerships that help #FeedNJ.
