With the holidays long over, it's time to turn our attention from our own stomach's to those of others. And so, it's time to kick off our annual Food for Free fundraiser. For the month of February, we will donate 5% of our sales to this local charity that collects fresh produce, that would otherwise go to waste, from wholesalers, grocery stores, farms, and CSAs and distributes it to over 74 food pantries in Boston, Cambridge, and Somerville. Their home delivery program brings this food into the homes of low-income elderly or disabled people who are unable to get to food banks themselves, allowing them to cook their own meals in their own homes rather than relying on prepared food from meals-on-wheels programs. On Thursday, February 2nd, we're holding a party to start this month long fundraiser at our store (190 Concord Ave., Cambridge) with, aptly, free food! Come by to meet some of the folks from Food for Free and enjoy yourself with a glass of wine and delicious light fare.

Here are some pictures from last year's party
