Hunger’s Hard, Baking’s Easy

Please join your fellow friends and bakers as we prepare and donate baked goods to the Lamoille Community Food Share, Clarina Howard Nichols Center, Lamoille Senior Center, The First Congregational Church (who provide free breakfasts every weekday) and Sweetwaters Restaurant in Burlington (for their free community Thanksgiving Day dinner). Hunger’s Hard, Baking’s Easy is a grassroot’s effort that started three years ago and whose success continues to grow annually.

Baked items are a rare offering at most food pantries and are especially appreciated and needed during the holidays. Pies, rolls, bread, cookies, and cakes filled two station wagons to overflowing last year and this time year we have more vehicles ready and waiting. Create them yourself or purchase from your local baker/grocer, both avenues are great! And for you non-bakers consider donating breakfast items such as english muffins, pancake mix, eggs, bacon, sausage and maple syrup for the free breakfasts we support.

Drop off day is Monday, November 21st at Stowe Elementary School, Stowe High School, The Body Lounge and In Company Clothing on the Mountain Road. Please have all donations delivered by 2:00 p.m. Contact Beth Gadbois at bethg@myfairpoint.net or Leslie Whitaker at lwhitaker@inntopia.com for more information, or see the complete details and what food items are needed at the Facebook page Hunger’s Hard, Baking’s Easy.
