Solidarity Harvest Auction
Start: Saturday, September 14, 2024• 5:00 PM
Every year, we organize a holiday meal box distribution in November, providing locally sourced meal boxes to people in hard times throughout Maine. A community-wide effort, hundreds of volunteers assemble the meal boxes at our office in Brewer.
In 2023 we distributed 1,650 meal boxes to households across Maine, each containing enough food for 8-10 people! Our goal for 2024 is to meet or exceed last year!
Solidarity Harvest meal boxes each contain over 30 lbs of fresh produce purchased (not donated) directly from smaller Maine farmers, supporting local farms and food producers, while strengthening the partner organizations and unions who distribute the meal boxes to their members. The program also shines a light on the high levels of food insecurity facing Mainers every year.
We hold an annual live auction as a fundraiser for Solidarity Harvest. This fun, live auction will be at our office in Brewer on Saturday, Sept 14 at 6pm. Some of the smaller valued items will be available in a silent auction at the same event.
