davis_squareNobody's getting food stamps next month, and I'm doing something about it! Maybe I could do something... FOR YOU!
See, I've discovered that I'm a really good courier when it comes to getting stuff into free boxes! I've also discovered that I'm good at helping people clean out their kitchens (and other rooms, but right now, food is the important thing). I've helped people do this and can give references!
So: is your kitchen full of herbs, spices, teas, drinks, or food that you are never going to get to? (Teas and herbs/spices are SO useful to people, and so often forgotten!) Does looking into your cabinets stress you out? I can help with that! I can help clean out your kitchen, disappear the bad stuff into the compost, and transport the good stuff to local free pantries so that hungry people can eat it! You get cupboard space, your neighbors get fed, I get to prove to myself the government can't break my spirit, and everyone wins!
This is an open offer for the general Boston area, but because I am a pedestrian and stuff like canned goods are heavy, I'm most useful in the Arlington, Cambridge, Medford, and Somerville areas. I will be limited in how much I can carry, but I have two VERY sturdy 20 liter backpacks, a tote bag, and a heart filled with determination and spite.
Help us feed our neighbors! Spread the word to anyone around who might find this useful!
(I don't require payment for this. I am MAD.)

Date: 2025-11-01 11:43 pm (UTC)The fridge has a freezer. No food in the freezer when I visited today. I stuck my arm inside and it felt...not necessarily frozen, but at least somewhat chilly.
There was a person leaving when I arrived, and another three people there. Some dropping off, some picking up. I don't usually see *anyone* else when I visit.
