Share Your Harvest – Little Food Library/Calgary Food Bank

Little Food Library – Shelf Stable Vegetables

Have a bountiful harvest of shelf stable vegetables like beets, potatoes, carrots, and squash? Donations accepted for our Little Food Library, please drop off at 3624 Boulton Rd NW. We’re also always grateful for any non-perishables you might be able to share. Have leftover food purchased from a summer camping trip – canned beans, KD, and tuna? It will be used for a good cause.

Calgary Food Bank – Donating Your Harvest

It’s easy! Bring your harvest to our warehouse so we can store it at the proper temperature and add to hampers right away! When donating your produce please do not wash it. The dirt helps to keep it fresh for longer. Please drop-off your unwashed produce in a container (bag, box, bin) that you ideally don’t need back.

Please note we don’t accept crab apples, rhubarb, or any home-grown fruit. Many people aren’t sure what to do with them and we find it very hard to give them away to clients and agencies.

5000 11 Street SE (Donation Centre which is Loading Dock, Door 7)

Monday to Thursday: 8:00 am to 7:30 pm

Friday and Saturday: 8:00 am to 3:00 pm
