Beginning September 20, Cuesta College will become a Neighborhood Food Distribution site for the Food Bank Coalition of San Luis Obispo County. Both the San Luis Obispo and North County campuses will host food distribution sites where participants can receive one bag of pantry food and one bag of fresh produce each month.
