A community fridge is a fridge located in a public space to allow members of a community to share food with one another. Unlike traditional food pantries, people are encouraged to add to the fridge or take food out according to their individual needs. There are no limits imposed, no ID or paperwork required, and the fridges are typically open 24/7. Donations are provided by food relief programs, community members, businesses and farms with excess food, and anyone else who would like to help. Community fridges are organized by members of each community as an effort of mutual aid.
