Summer Eats Program 2025

Free Summer Eats meals will begin soon on Monday, June 23rd, in Springfield! All kids and teens 18 and under can eat meals for free; no sign-up is required, and no questions are asked. Just visit the
Summer Eats sites throughout the summer at the time listed on our website.

This summer, kids and teens eat free at meal sites throughout Springfield! Kids and teens must be present to receive a meal and are required to eat on-site. Many sites will host fun, kid-friendly activities throughout the summer!

For more information on fun activities and to track down our food truck, follow Home Grown Springfield on social media @homegrownsps or visit our website at www.homegrownspringfield.org/summereats.
     
Summer Eats – Free Meals for Kids & Teens

▪ Home Grown Springfield, the Culinary & Nutrition Program of Springfield Public Schools, will make and distribute Summer Eats meals across the city this summer.

▪ Each summer, Home Grown Springfield’s Summer Eats program lessens the summer hunger gap by increasing access to free meals for kids and teens.

▪ Home Grown Springfield provides lunch Monday through Friday for children and teens 18 and under at no cost. No registration or identification is required.
     
Chase the Flavor: Follow the Summer Eats Food Truck
From June 23rd to August 15th, the Springfield Summer Eats food truck will hit the road, bringing nutritious meals directly to the community during the early days of the summer. The vibrant food truck will make daily stops at Forest Park, Blunt Park, Kenefick Park, and Marshall Roy Park to serve lunch. The service will run Monday through Thursday. For more information on serving times, visit www.homegrownspringfield.org/summereats.
