Food Hamper and Banks in the Chemainus Area

Provided by Chemainus Harvest House Society

Distributes food to those in need, serving residents from Saltair to Westholme and creating public awareness of the needs of the community.
Chemainus Harvest House Society has four distribution sites open throughout the week to serve residents from Saltair to Westholme. Individuals are encouraged to register in advance to help CHHS food bank distribution, but pre-registration is not required in order to receive food. Those in need are welcome to show up and access the food bank once a week at the Food Bank that works best for your schedule. Anyone is welcome in Harvest House Food Banks, and no one is alone - friends or neighbours are welcome to come pack a hamper on behalf of those in need.
