Fresh For All Pumpkins Put To Good Use

Jan 22, 2016

Thank you to all the Foodbank Volunteers who worked so hard on Monday to make over 60 pumpkin bread from all the leftover pumpkins that were donated to us in the fall.

We had cleaned, cooked and froze all the leftover pumpkins so we could bake something with them in the winter, which we are now doing. This Friday the rest of the pumpkins will be baked into more pumpkin bread.

All the pumpkin bread will be donated to our clients at the foodbank. The pumpkins were donated from one of our clients as part of the Fresh For All Campaign and as their way of giving back for the help they received.
I love Fresh For All! Don’t forget if you have room in your garden this spring plant a row of something for your local foodbank in your area!

Pumpkins from Fresh For All

Nov 13, 2015

Thanks to Fresh For All, the Wellington Storehouse Foodbank was able to go and get 100 pumpkins from one of our contributors in Ameliasburgh township. We spent most of Thursday cooking them down and freezing them so we can make pumpkin loavess with our clients in a few weeks. Thank you to all the volunteers who came out and helped. Missing from the picture is Bonnie Lewis who is camera shy but such an amazing volunteer to the food bank.

Food to Share Cook-a-thon

Thank you to Glen Wallis and all the volunteers that came out today to help make stuffed peppers, chili, butternut squash soup, carrot soup and apple crumble for our food bank clients. It was great meeting all of you and working with you today. Thank you to the farmers and gardeners who donated the produce and to everyone who took the time to go and pick the produce. It is so nice to be able to offer healthy choices to our clients, thanks to the generosity of all who donated either their time, ingredients or supplies. Thank you for helping us, help others in our community. Looking forward to working with you again in the coming weeks.
