The Food Hub
On Tuesdays we interact with the local community by redistributing surplus food such as fruit and vegetables free of charge to those who are unemployed and at risk of hunger. We facilitate this by partnering with local supermarkets to collect surplus food like potatoes that would otherwise go to waste.
Testimonials
