This is our first summer "pop-up" Food Truck sales event, hosted by the East Calais Community Trust. We hope to have many more events.

In the meantime, we continue to distribute over 350 free meals every week as part of Vermont's Everyone Eats program, Thursdays 4-6 through June 24.

And gardeners - please plant an "Extra Row" for those in our community who may need a little help with their food budget or may not have a garden. You can bring your extra produce to the store's front steps on Saturday mornings from 9-11, beginning June 26.

We continue to raise funds for the renovation of the historic building and re-opening of our General Store. For more information about the ECCT and how you can support our efforts, please visit our website: http://www.eastcalaiscommunitytrust.org/
