Gold Hill Food Bank report

Posted on: March 24th, 2020

Another successful, sunny day today to distribute food to anyone who needs it.  We held it today because snow was forecast for tomorrow, but we plan to be going back to each Wednesday (weather permitting) from noon until 2 pm on the patio in back of the Gold Hill Store.  

The food comes from the Nederland Food Bank and they get a lot from Community Food Share in Boulder and buy some and get donations from assorted places. We had a bunch of bread from Amie with the Ward Food Bank today – day old from Whole Foods. Quite the organizational deal.  We aren’t sure in advance what they will have to bring to us, but so far there has been a great assortment of fresh, canned, and dried foods.

This is free to all, but several people asked, and if you would like to donate to the cause, please go to nederlandfoodpantry.org or to communityfoodshare.org

Thank you so much to Jay and Whitey at the store for helping with this. And don’t forget to buy stuff from them to keep them going, too.   We do need to ask that everyone practice social distancing in this time of Coronavirus.  We need to stay 6′ from each other.  We will wear gloves and bag up whatever you need for you.  Thank you for remembering  <3  Bring your bags.
