Are you looking for a more affordable way to get fresh produce and meat each month?
The WECAN Food Basket Society believes in healthy food for all of Barrhead and the surrounding area.
WECAN connects individuals and families with a basket of fresh produce and frozen meat items. As the food order has been prepaid, members need only go to their community depot to pick up their order.
The WECAN program uses a pre-pay model, purchases bulk wholesale food, uses community pop-up locations, and staffs these community locations with dedicated volunteers on delivery day. With a $5 membership fee, only $15 for fresh fruits and vegetables, and $20 for meat, it is an affordable option.
The program is available to, and appeals to all society members. As food is often the most flexible item in most household budgets, our food basket the third week of the month is invaluable.
WECAN would like to remind members that: “Every member is responsible for picking up their food order on depot pick up day. If this is not possible, it is the member’s responsibility to make all necessary arrangements. Any food not picked up will be sold to other members or donated to a community group for distribution.”
