  • Monthly Hampers: Any Cherryville resident is eligible to receive a monthly food hamper. There is also a weekly drop in service where anyone can access any excess food that is available.
  • Christmas Hampers and Gifts Event: Cherryville residents requiring extra support at Christmas time can access this event. Children are “adopted angels” under this program by various donors who purchase Christmas gifts to be added to large Christmas hampers.

  • Organic Community Garden: The community garden provides on average 2,000lbs of fresh, organic produce each summer which goes directly to supplement the food bank's food security programs.
