Neighbors Helping Neighbors in Need!
Market Volunteer Shane has recently begun volunteering with Lasagna Love and Food not Bombs.
Food Not Bombs is a mutual aid movement that focuses on fighting hunger and food insecurities. They serve free vegan and vegetarian food to anyone, no questions asked. Each chapter collects surplus food from grocery stores, bakeries, local farmers, and food that would otherwise go to waste, repurposing it to feed vulnerable communities… Learn More Here.
Lasagna Love is a community focused program that helps provide food security and kindness to those in need through fresh, homemade lasagna. Volunteers are paired with individuals that need a little extra love, whether it be because of a disability, a financial hardship, or just a rough week. This movement started during COVID as a way to help neighbors and build community in a scary and confusing time.
Shane Battles volunteers with Lasagna Love, providing homemade lasagna to those in need every month. While he has only been helping with Lasagna Love for a month, he says it’s a great way to combine his love of cooking with his desire to help those in need.
