throw back thursday

07.16.2015 By: Eliza, MiniBury Founder

#tbt to that time we let you know where your children can find FREE lunches this summer. Please pass this important information along to anyone and everyone. 

It’s officially here folks, summer! Time to break out the swim suits, flip flops and relax. However, for many families, summer translates to increased food instability for their children. Did you know that one in five Vermont children experiences hunger or food hardship? Fortunately, there are countless groups working tirelessly around the state to make sure that EVERY child who needs food has access to high quality food during the summer months. To learn more about the free food opportunities here in Addison County read on. LunchFlyer_Summer2015

There are free meals for Addison County kids this summer. Thanks to the USDA’s Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), summer meals are available at no charge to all children 18 and under! There will be many participation locations throughout the county.

If your family would like to take part in this exciting program, dial 2-1-1 or text ‘FOOD’ to 877-877 to find out when and where meals are being served in your area. All children 18 and under can take part: no application, no registration and no need to call ahead! Please share this opportunity widely. If you live in another Vermont county, please feel free to reach out via email, we have copies of the flyers for all the free lunch programs around the state.
If you have any questions about this program, contact Derrick Lambert or call 865-0255 to learn more.

Hello, I’m Eliza. I founded MiniBury in 2012 because I had a hunch that I wasn't the only parent in Addison County missing fun family friendly events. I love the challenge of finding and sharing information about our community to other parents.
