We are thrilled to announce our new community refrigerator. We're calling it the FREEdge. We've heard from many folks in the state that some of the hardest things to secure for folks experiencing food insecurity are fresh fruits and vegetables. We wanted to help meet this need in our community. That desire inspired the FREEdge.

Accessing the FREEdge

• This food is FREE to anyone in need.

• The FREEdge is open seven days a week at the Pope Memorial Library, No. Conway, NH during library hours (posted in the comments and on their website).

• The FREEdge will be restocked with fresh produce from our market vendors by Wednesday mornings.

Support the FREEdge

So many people have asked how they can help. Thank you! You can make a donation to the program online; by mailing a check (payable to MWV Farmers’ Market) to 41 Washington St, Set 10, Conway, NH 03818; or donating in person at the Farmers’ Market on Tuesdays from June-October.

Carroll County Food Access Network Resources

The Carroll County Food Access Network has an extensive list of resources for folks who need to find support with food, housing, and even diapers. You van view or download this list on their website.

Thank you!

Food access programs are made possible because of donations from individuals and businesses, and grant support from Champions of New Hampshire Farms and NH Healthy Lives program. Without this generous support, we would not have a FREEdge! And, thanks to our friends at the Pope Memorial Library, it has an easily accessible home in the library's lobby. Big hat tip to White Mountain Community Health Center for brainstorming this project and possible locations with us. Our Grass Roots Fund cohort friends at Kearsarge Food Hub inspired us with the idea. Community makes so many good things happen.
