Community Pantry



We have a new brightly coloured stand on our fence line. It is a community food pantry, The concept is, that anyone from our community can donate food for others who need it. People are donating extra cans or packets of food that they purchased from the supermarket. Other people are donating fruit and vegetables that they have grown in their garden.



Every year, millions of dollars worth of food is wasted and thrown out because some people have too much food, and they can't eat it all.
This is a great concept. Any surplus food can be donated. There is always someone else who needs it more than you.

Thank you Lawton (2 cans of spaghetti) and Erin (a head of broccoli) for being one of the first to donate...

We have started brainsrtorming our ideas...
