We are so happy to be able to offer you a seat at the table now! Feed Buffalo acquired these chairs from a closing gallery. The table was donated from a kind Buffalo designer who was selling on Facebook Marketplace. When he learned what the purchase was for he gave us the table! Special thanks to Robert Johnson (Drea’s Father) and to Abdul, Siraj, and Sadiq (Drea’s Sons) for helping us to put together our new table! We are so grateful to connect with fellow WNY-ers who believe in building community! In March, we plan to install our sink and wet bar! Stay tuned!

Feed Buffalo was awarded $5,000 from the Marguerite Casey Foundation! Special thanks to Rami Nashishibi and the entire organization for seeing and supporting healthy communities. This grant allows us to secure ourselves in our new building for the rest of the year and to get much needed appliances for the pantry! We are so grateful!

Feed Buffalo presented the first Healthy Community Session at the Massachusetts Avenue Project! We featured Vegan Chef, L. Judith Carroll of St. Croix. She cooked plant-based comfort foods and spoke to the community about the benefits of healthy living. Chef Alexa Joan of Buffalo, NY also made delicious vegan cakes and roasted cabbage. The audience was mixed, open and very receptive. Click here for recipes from Chef L. Judith Carroll!

We made a lot of progress with our Little Free Pantry Project! We worked with Health Sciences Charter School students and community volunteers to finish the structure, doors, and add green roofs with trough-resistant plants! The Foundry has been an awesome collaborator for this project! We are almost finished!
In June, we also added a chalkboard wall to our pantry! Special thanks to Arleym Habeeb of CPR Remodeling Pros for such efficient work!

We are excited to collaborate with The Foundry for our Little Free Pantry project! Megan McNally instructed our volunteers in safety and woodbuilding. We cut out the wood for the base, shelves and roof for 2 little free pantries. In our next session, we will complete one pantry and do some more cutting! Special thanks to Project Mona’s House and Young Women’s Empowerment Academy for sending youth volunteers. Visit our events page to find a session that you can join. We look forward to having you.
Thank you M & T bank for making this possible.
