Local Food Security = 20,000 pounds
The SVFC Project
is setting a goal of giving away 20,000 pounds of fresh produce.
Thursdays the farm will be focused on growing, harvesting,
& delivery for the food pantries. Come on out to the farm and give a
hand. The food pantries we serve are:
- Buxton
Community Cupboard
- Hollis
Center Baptist Church Food Pantry
- Limington
Congregational Church Food Pantry
- Riverside
Methodist Church Food Pantry in Kezar Falls
- St.
Matthew’s Food Pantry in Limerick
- Standish
Food Pantry
- The
Root Cellar in Portland
The volunteer group Cultivate of Support Solutions has taken
on the responsibility of growing a garden at the farm for the primary purpose of
giving food away to the Buxton Food Pantry. We appreciate their
willingness & dedication in all kinds of weather to work on this project.
The SVFC project began in October 2007, so far to date (Jan.
'08) we have given away over 1000 pounds, only 19,000 more to go!
