The Mets are hosting their annual Summer Food Drive, powered by the Amazin’ Mets Foundation, to benefit City Harvest on Thursday, July 23rd from 10:00am-7:00pm at Citi Field.
City Harvest is New York City’s first and largest food rescue organization. This year, City Harvest will rescue nearly 90 million pounds of high-quality food that would otherwise go to waste and deliver it, free of charge, to hundreds of food pantries and soup kitchens across the five boroughs.
Fans donating at least 10 non-perishable items will receive a voucher redeemable for two tickets to a select Monday – Thursday Mets home game in 2026. Fans will be limited to one ticket voucher. Fans who donate will also receive an exclusive 20% discount at the team store. Some exclusions may apply.
All types of canned and packaged goods are welcome, but no glass containers or perishable foods please. The most needed foods are:
- Canned fruit
- Canned vegetables
- Canned proteins (e.g. tuna, beans)
- Canned soups
- Peanut butter (plastic jars)
- Macaroni and cheese (packaged)
- Hot and cold cereal (packaged, family-sized)
- Juice packs
Free parking for the Food Drive will be available in Lot G. Lot G can be accessed through Gate 1 on Seaver Way.
The Mets Team Store is located on the first base side of Citi Field, between the Jackie Robinson Rotunda and the Hodges Entrance.
We hope to see you there!
