• Second Harvest was founded in 1983 by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Council of Orange under the leadership of Dan Harney and Tom Fuentes. • October 23, 1983, the food bank began its food distribution operations in a converted fruit packing facility in the City of Orange. • In 2008 Second Harvest, outgrew the Orange location and moved to a new facility in the Great Park in Irvine on the old El Toro Marine Base. • The new modern facility more than doubled the food bank's capacity to meet the needs of Orange County's hungry during the most difficult economic times since the Great Depression.

T• In 2012, Second Harvest became an independent 501 c3 corporation.
