Feeding Hundreds of Our Neighbors Every Week

Edible Hope Kitchen is open every weekday morning from 8-10 AM to provide a free meal, community, and, in the words of our guests, Edible Hope.

Visit Us in Our New Home!

After 30 years in the basement of St. Luke’s, Edible Hope has finally moved into our new home at St. Paul’s UCC in Ballard. Our new address is 6512 12th Ave NW.

Our hours will remain the same, 8-10 AM Monday through Friday (Holidays included). Our mission will always remain the same, to feed people in mind, body, and spirit. Please consider stopping by our new location to volunteer or to simply grab a cup of coffee. Sign up to volunteer below.

Our Mission

Edible Hope’s mission is to build community through a shared meal, love, and service. We feed people in mind, body, and spirit five days a week all throughout the year.

The Power of a Shared Meal

For over three decades, Edible Hope has been welcoming and serving anyone who needs a meal in the St. Luke’s church basement in the heart of Ballard. Each weekday morning from 8-10 am, a team of volunteers opens our doors, prepares coffee and food (all of which has been donated), and offers a meal, a cup of coffee, and a warm place to enjoy them to everyone who shows up.

Run by the Community, for the Community!

EHK is largely run by neighbors and guests for neighbors. In fact, volunteers are the bread and butter of our operation. We are always looking for new volunteers to help us cook, clean, prep food and serve Monday - Friday between 7-11am. We also host group visits! Click below to learn more about volunteering with us!
