Free pantry
Dear Editor:
I wanted to take a moment to share with our community that we have installed a Little Free Pantry in front of our home at 200 Tait Crescent in Fergus.
The Little Free Pantry is about neighbours helping neighbours. It’s a grassroots, community-driven response to promote food security in our neigbourhoods. The guiding principle of this project is “take what you need, give what you can.” The Little Free Pantry is stocked with shelf-stable food products and personal hygiene items available to anyone who may need them, day or night. If you, or someone you know is in need, please don’t hesitate to stop by our pantry.
Our pantry is part of the 519 Community Collective Free Pantry Project which is in the process of installing 17 pantry locations across Waterloo Region, Guelph, and Centre Wellington.
