Pasifika Food Networks

Pasifika Food NETworks

Our Pasifika Food NETworks was established to combat the devastating impacts of food insecurity experienced by our NHPI communities through providing region-specific access to culturally appropriate foods throughout Washington State. Fishing nets have traditionally been our symbol for the bounty of the Pacific Oceans and our values of collective stewarding of our harvests. We are also committed to fighting for Food Justice and Sovereignty in solidarity with Native communities to restore an embodied practice of growing local food sources, accessing land for farming and supporting farmers of color in Washington State.

Pasifika Food Networks operates every Thursday of the month, across different regions of Washington. On 1st and 3rd Thursdays, we distribute in the Northern Region out of Snohomish. On 2nd and 4th Thursdays, we distribute in King County out of our office in Federal Way, while also supplying the Pierce County region with our partners at the Asia Pacific Cultural Center.

If you are in need of food support, please reach out to us at contact@picawa.org.
