“I’m Ziona Brownlow. Here’s how we nourish. We created a community refrigerator where people can access donated and rescued food at any time, including sandwiches made weekly by volunteers.” How are you nourishing a healthier you in 2022? #healthyyou2022

Community Fridge update!
The closure of the fridge is going to be extended to allow for more time to do some future planning. There will be a volunteer/community meeting on Friday, December 16th at 5:30-7:30 pm. The location will be decided shortly
We hope that you’ll join us to talk through some challenges that have come up including winter maintenance, logistics, and opportunities for leadership roles.
If you have any questions, please reach out! We'll share more info on agenda items closer to the date of the meeting.
Be sure to sign up for our email list on our website for more updates and thank you for helping us #feedanchorage 🤝
Happy 1/2 Birthday to the Community Fridge Project! 🎉
Over the last 6 months we’ve learned so much about our community’s needs. To implement some of these changes and prepare for winter, we’ll be closing the community fridge for 30 days starting this Friday 10/21
This project is entirely volunteer operated. The last six months our team has taken action around needs we couldn’t have anticipated. This break also allows all of us to rest and reflect on those events while getting refreshed before a season that can be difficult for many of us
✨transparency moment✨
The fridge site hasn’t been getting unlocked/locked regularly, adding hiccups for donors and shoppers. We need more volunteers in the Mt. View area who can open and/or lock up (9am/6pmish). If this is you please email volunteer@foodforthoughtalaska.com

@ThaBearMinimum and our kiddos dropped off quarts of milk, cottage cheese, butter, carrots, tomatoes, apples, yogurt, pads, tampons, baby wipes, and chapstick at the Mountain View Community Fridge. Still needs a little love, folks #FeedAnchorage – at Anchorage, AK
