Share Your Fare Frontenac 2017

Jun 28, 2017

Share Your Fare is a community based initiative that encourages people who have gardens to donate some of their produce to people who do not. Contributions are used or distributed by local community organizations. Share Your Fare promotes health in our community through the creation of an integrated network for food sharing. Share Your Fare provides fresh produce for local organizations and programs increasing interconnectedness, self reliance and sustainability within our community.

Just a little...one head of lettuce, a few tomatoes or a handful of carrots is a wonderful contribution. No amount is too small (larger quantities are also welcome).

It's easy...Currently drop off locations are in Sharbot Lake, every day of the week! Bring something with you when you go to, or through, Sharbot Lake.

Keep growing...Share Your Fare closer to home. Organizations and programs throughout Frontenac County are encouraged to participate. If you are part of a church, community centre or organized group and would like to join the initiative, email your location, drop off time and where you will direct the contributions (to community dinners, festivals, or individuals in need) to This email address is being protected from spambots.
