Grab your Festival Pass to Seminole Dining’s Foodstock and hit the campus dining circuit like a true fan! Passes can be picked up from the FSUCard Office, Suwannee Room, or Seminole Café. As you make your way from venue to venue, collect stamps from each stop on the lineup (each dining location). Every festival-goer who participates and returns their festival pass earns a prize, the first 100 to complete their pass will earn $10 Dining Dollars, and three lucky fans who collect all of the stamps in their Festival Pass by August 28th will score one of three grand prizes. Don’t miss your chance to tour the lineup, discover great eats, and start the semester as a Foodstock VIP!

If you've been away from campus for the Summer, you probably haven't seen the construction in the area around Seminole Cafe!

Health & Nutrition

We are committed to nourishing all guests by providing nutritious options that fit each need! Both of our dining halls have allergen friendly stations such as the Stress Less Zone, Worry Free Zone, and the True Balance Station. At the Stress Less Zone in Seminole Cafe, you'll find an assortment of pre-packaged foods that are peanut, tree nut, and/or gluten friendly! The True Balance Station located in Suwannee Room is an AllerCheck™ certified station which offers a complete meal made without gluten and the top 9 food allergens (milk, eggs, wheat, soy, shellfish, fish, tree nuts, peanuts, and sesame). The Worry-Free Zone is an isolated, locked pantry stocked with peanut, tree nut, and gluten-free products located in Suwannee Room. Students with meal plans who are medically required to limit or avoid peanuts, tree nuts, and/or gluten should apply with the Office of Accessibility Services to request access to the pantry!

Pairing them with protein, healthy fats, and fiber can help prevent sharp blood sugar spikes and crashes, keeping you feeling full and energized for longer. Examples of smart snacks include:

Sustainability Corner

The Food Recovery Network at FSU is all about reducing food waste and helping our community. Since 2014, this student-led program has recovered over 190,000 pounds of extra food from dining halls and events around campus and donated it to local organizations that support people facing food insecurity. It’s a simple way to make a real difference, and they’re now looking for student volunteers to join for the Fall semester.

Why Sign Up?

• It's a quick and meaningful way to give back.
• You'll help fight food waste and support people in need right in Tallahassee.
• Share with other students who care about community impact.

If you want to learn more, fill out this volunteer interest form and FSU Sustainable Campus will reach out to you for more information!
