Farmers Market Donation Stations Supports our Community Fridge

A huge thank you to our new community partner, Vancouver Community Fridges project. They provided volunteers for the Riley Park Farmers Market Donation Station March 5, and the produce from the vendors was placed in the fridge that is in front of LMNH.

Shoppers donated $309.80 at the market so for the LMNH fiscal year (April 1, 2021-March 31, 2022) shoppers cash contributions is $2,469.50!

Shoppers funds donated support our capacity to buy fresh produce to add to the items we receive from the food bank. In addition to the fridge that is community access, each week our Food Distribution program serves on average 69 households and over 200 people.

With such gratitude. I hope that all volunteers had fun and look forward to next month. The donation station is at the Riley Park Farmers Market the 1st Saturday of each month. Thank you to our long-term partner, Vancouver Farmers Market, the market vendors and shoppers. To volunteer at the donation station and to learn more, email Joanne.
