How to Share Safely and Kindly
Our community pantry runs on mutual respect and care. To keep the items safe, usable, and helpful for everyone, please follow these simple guidelines
Our Approach
Our Outdoor Free Food Pantries are strategically placed in locations across Brantford where access to food may be limited, such as food deserts or low-income neighborhoods. These pantries are stocked with a variety of non-perishable food items, hygiene products, and other essentials.
Maintaining Outdoor Pantries
One of the key benefits of our Outdoor Pantries is their ability to provide a sense of dignity and autonomy to those facing food insecurity. Each pantry has stewards who oversee the stock, quality and amount of food that is present at a given time. In addition, BL has a pantry care team that goes to the pantries throughout the day to clean, top up, and organize them, ensuring they are welcoming to patrons using the pantry. This is done every day, many times a day. Thank you, stewards and pantry care team!
