Event Description
Every Tuesday and Saturday our volunteers receive food scraps from hundreds of the 45,000 residents in the West End. The take since June 2012 now totals over 50 tonnes of food scraps for composting to be recycled back into growing, also reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Tuesday evenings (February 3, 10, 17, 24) from 6 - 7:30 pm and Saturday mornings (February 7, 14, 21, 28) from 10 am - noon at Gordon Neighbourhood House.
Saturday mornings from 10 am - noon (February 7, 14, 21, 28) at West End Community Centre.
Ongoing. Click here for March dates.
Food Scrap Drop Spots are run entirely by volunteers. If you can help by volunteering at one or more shifts per month, please contact Ross at [email protected].
