FREE AND ACCESSIBLE FOOD FOR ALL.
We make fresh foods, fruits, produce, low-intervention foods, and ready-to-eat meals accessible to all. We operate and maintain ten free fridges across the Capital Region in Upstate New York and provide food access-related programming for our communities. We serve as an anonymous & direct food access point to food insecure neighborhoods, systemically oppressed and marginalized neighborhoods, and communities that hold the global majority. Access to fresh foods and produce have been a continuous issue in Albany and beyond, due to structural racism & redlining through city planning.

Get Involved
We are looking for individuals to maintain fridges, artists to decorate the fridges, and local farms and businesses to sponsor us. We are also looking for locations to host an outdoor fridge. If you have a specific skill that you think could aid in this project, please contact us.
Donate
We are looking for local restaurants and farmers to come on board to help provide free and accessible food for marginalized neighborhoods and people. We are also accepting monetary donations, as well as donations of sanitizer and PPE.
