Our local #Indivisible is hosting a food collection this month for our neighbors. I know a lot of neighbors who depend on both basic and supplemental food supplies, and Trump is just making everything worse while he takes $400M gifts and gold bars and pockets it all in his greedy little hands with his smug orange smirk.
He is tiring, but not as tired as parents trying to feed their hungry children and find the money for gas to get to and from work. Or elderly neighbors deciding on how to use their $900 social security to pay for rent, electricity, meds, coin-op laundry, bus fare, food for themselves and their cat or dog.
Please think of donating to your local food pantry.
We solve the insurmountable world's problems with each small act of righteousness, wherever we can.

#LaPointeWI - #MadelineIsland #CommunityGarden

"The Madeline Island Community Garden acknowledges that we garden on the land of the ancestral and contemporary #Anishinaabe, home to the #Ojibwe people. We affirm our commitment to support community wide discussion and education about indigenous sovereignty and history, and to encourage respect for the stories and sacredness this land has for the Ojibwe people.

"The garden offers a place for gardeners to grow their own food, as well as providing seasonal produce for the #FoodPantry at St. John’s Church.

Our garden is an ever-evolving creation…a fertile ground for producing nutritious local food, nurturing friendships, and connecting more closely to the processes of nature. The year’s unfolding brings unexpected delights as seeds sprout, flowers bloom, and vegetables mature and are gathered for harvest. Gardening can be challenging in this northern climate with frustratingly short growing seasons, unexpected early and late frosts, years with too much or too little rain, heavy clay soils, and of course the ubiquitous insects, weeds, and herbivores. Deer, rabbits, and voles love our fresh garden produce as much as we do! Many hands and many hearts have worked together to build a place that can sustain both body and soul of community members.

Our garden has a combination of individual growing plots for rent, as well as communal areas where a variety of crops are grown. Each season we work to supply fresh, local produce to the food shelf at St. John’s UCC.

The Madeline Island Community Garden is open sunup to sundown daily for plot renters to come and work in their space, harvest, or simply enjoy. As the garden is on leased private property and adjacent to a residence, please contact us for a tour and visit. We’d love to show you around!"

…The incident came amid a weekend #CBP campaign in Little Village, Cicero & Oak Park, where a #GirlScouts #FoodPantry food drive was halted Saturday after the troop encountered federal agents.

“What I witnessed with my eyes yesterday was #StateSponsoredTerrorism,” said state Sen Celina Villanueva of the activity in Little Village Saturday. “They kept going & coming back, & every single time they left destruction & traumatized people in their wake.”

This is the food distribution line at Nellis Air Force base in LasVegas.

Look at the lines of Military families having to stand in line to receive food. Federal workers and the military aren’t getting paid because of the MAGA shutdown which happened because Republicans are afraid the Epstein files will get released.

Okay, anyone have any advice on how to donate to the local food pantries without ending up on their donation solicitation lists? I've finally started to fall off radar since the last time I donated somewhere and I really hate how much mail it generates.

I know how much it costs to put those mailers together, and I'd really rather not be contributing to that overhead when the money should be going to buying food. Yes, I know, they budget for it, and some of the better ones do see a good return on donations, but I am not their target demographic for this shit.

So, uh, yeah. Do I just need to like walk into my local one with actual cash and insist it's an anonymous donation, or is there another way to ensure they won't cover me up with donation solicitation mail?

#Maine - Local businesses poised to help residents during #SNAP funding pause

Maine Public | By Michael Livingston
Published October 28, 2025 at 3:09 PM EDT

"Local businesses are stepping up across Maine to provide food and supplies for people who will go without SNAP benefits in November due to the government shutdown.

"Nearly 170,000 Mainers are enrolled in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program which provides an average of $572 per family every month.

"#SamsItalianFoods, which has multiple locations in the #LewistonAuburn area, plans to give away 10' cheese #pizzas to SNAP families with children in November.

"Store manager Trisha Cottrill said she's watched the generosity spread to other businesses ever since state officials announced the federal government warned them that it will not be distributing benefits last week.

" 'I opened my Facebook this morning and saw that #JustInTime is doing something. #NuttyNettiesCafe is also doing something,' Cotrill said. 'It's really great that the community, as a whole, is pitching in to help ease the burden on families.'

"Receiving a pizza at any Sam's location will require proof of I.D. with a SNAP or #EBTCard with the child present. If a parent wants to eat with their child, Sam's will offer a 10% discount.

"Over a third of all SNAP households have children, according to state data.

"Grocery stores like #MegunticookMarket in #CamdenME are also giving away free food and supplies.

"Owner Nishant Patel said he gave away dozens of bags of fresh produce over the weekend which included tomatoes, onions, bananas and bread."

[...]

"According to Maine DHHS, SNAP benefits already loaded onto EBT cards in October remain available for use to purchase food. Those who need additional resources are encouraged to call their local #FoodPantry or #Call211.

See below for additional businesses that have announced food assistance initiatives via social media:

- Taj Indian & Indo-Chinese Cuisine (#SouthPortlandME)
- Nutty Nellies Cafe (#AuburnME)
- Fresh off the Farm (#RockportME)
- Just-In-Time Recreation (#LewistonME)
- Family Time Dine and Play (#AuburnME)
- J&H Pizza (Auburn)
- Marvelous Macarons (Auburn)
- Bucksport Nutrition (#BucksportME)
- Provender Kitchen & Bar (#EllsworthME)

@LeatherCubAndrew Hey, so I came across this resource... It may not be up-to-date, but I saw a lot of the food pantries in Maine listed (I just decided to go with the Maine government list).

About Food Pantries

Food Pantries is not associated with any government agency or nonprofit organization. We list Food Pantries centers throughout the US.

#Massachusetts: Find a local #FoodBank

Need food? A local food bank can help you put food on your table so you don't go hungry.

Notice: President #Trump is currently choosing not to issue November #SNAP benefits that help you and many families put food on the table.

You also may have your benefits cut starting in November because of changes Congressional Republicans and President Trump enacted in the '#OneBigBeautifulBill.' Learn more and check back for updates at mass.gov/
