Like Pie? Us Too! Help Bake and Cook for the Community.

Volunteers Needed for Bake Nights

Pies for People, Soup for Supper

Tuesday and Wednesday, November 16th and 17th, is the bake night for our 3rd Annual Pies for People, Soup for Supper event, hosted by Sterling College and Center for an Agricultural Economy. We are in need of enthusiastic volunteers to help us prepare 150 pumpkin pies and 50 gallons of scrumptious winter squash soup! A true farm-to-table experience, all of the ingredients will be sourced and processed from local farms and will be fed directly back to Northeast Kingdom communities. A great chance to partake in a community feeding its own community! Baking will start at 7pm and ends at 10pm. 6-12 volunteers are needed each night. RSVP to elena@hardwickagriculture.org

Unable to volunteer? DONATE! Become involved by donating to our Food Access Fund. The Food Access Fund directly supports the Hardwick Area Food Pantry by reimbursing them for products purchased directly from local agricultural businesses. Seeded by an anonymous donation two years ago, the CAE is challenged to maintain the fund for continued use. Your donation of any amount will help us do exactly that.

Donations are vital in helping ensure food security throughout the year, especially in the leaner spring months when food pantries find their shelves more sparse. Thank you for whatever donation, be it your time or money, that you can contribute.
