community fridge
Shared food storage
A community fridge is a refrigerator placed in a public or semi-public location where people can leave or take food freely.
The goal is reducing food waste while helping those facing food insecurity.
Restaurants, grocers, and individuals donate surplus food; anyone can take what they need.
There's a community fridge outside the church on Maple Street.
