About this service
The Food Recovery Depot has been going strong since our opening in November 2018. As of November 2019 we have recovered over 30,000 pounds of healthy food that would otherwise have ended up in the landfill. This food that is "fit to eat but not fit for sale" has been diverted to those in need in the community, making healthy food (produce, dairy, grains and meat) more accessible. The Food Recovery Depot is located on the lower level of the Kimberley Health Center and is open to the public from 3:30-4:30pm every Friday.
Thank you to Columbia Basin Trust, the City of Kimberley and Save-On Foods Kimberley for their support of this project as well as all the cooperating businesses, organizations and enthusiastic volunteers.
If you're interested in volunteering or are involved with a non profit who would like to receive recovered healthy foods, please call or e-mail our food recovery coordinator Shannon at 250-427-7981 or healthykimberleyfrd@gmail.com.
