Wedge Neighborhood Food Share
Helping neighbors get by, with groceries provided for all.
Choosing between paying rent and eating is a choice no one should have to make. We want to ensure that no neighbor needs to make that choice in these trying times. The LHENA Food Share program – created and run by neighbor-volunteers – is now offering free groceries twice a month to anyone in the Wedge who needs it. This means one bag of fresh fruit/vegetables and one bag of pantry items. Food Shares are on the second Saturday of the month.
Receiving Groceries
Reserve your groceries up to the Friday before. Reserve by emailing Foodshare@thewedge.org or calling 612-807-9080. Pick up your groceries at 2836 Lyndale Avenue South – go to the parking lot and the black awning over the doorway. We can also accommodate gluten free, diary free, vegetarian, and vegan – let us know yours dietary needs when you reserve.
How to Help Out
There are three ways you can volunteer:
1. Make cookies and drop them off the morning of the Food Share.
2. Delivery groceries to neighbors.
3. Work at the Food Share site by assembling groceries and helping distribute food to those who show up.
