Lamoille Neighborhood Food Project /The Green Bag Project

A person brought in a bag of food to donate to the Food Share and ​her response to our thanks was​, "It feels good to help."

It's a simple statement, but ​it's true, and we hear it a lot at the Food Share. No matter what that "help" is, it's making a positive difference to someone somewhere.

The Green Bag Project (officially known as the Lamoille Neighborhood Food Project) is one way to help the Food Share throughout the year. Donating a Green Bag of ​nonperishable ​food every two months provides a reliable influx of food to put on ​the pantry shelves​. These ​donations ​offset some of what the Food Share must otherwise purchase​ to help over 350 families each month.

Green Bags and ​collection boxes are handily available at Morrisville, Hyde Park, Wolcott and Stowe libraries, or, come by the Food Share during open hours (M-F 9-11:30 and Sat 9:30-11) to pick up a bag.

​The next Green Bag Day is Saturday, October 10​. ​ ​Drop off your donation in any bag and ask for a Green Bag for next time!
