This project began in August of 2021 with the support of Just Zilch: Food Rescue & Free Store. 

RECAP Community Kai (formally Recap Rescued Food Distribution) happens every Tuesday from 3:15-4:15pm, from the Ashhurst library back room. You can access this from the community garden, next to the library.

We give out free kai every week. At present anyone can pick up, no questions asked. We operate a self-serve service, with items put out for you to choose from. PLEASE read the signage as it will tell you how much of each item you can take, and if any items are past their best before dates. Please be kind and respectful to our volunteers and to others picking up kai. Any questions, you can contact us at info@recap.org.nz or though our facebook page. A BIG thank you to RECAP, Just Zilch, the Ashhurst Community Library, Mission for Men, Lunch by Libelle, DKSH and all of our volunteers who make this happen every week. 

If you would like to donate to this service you can via our dedicated givealittle page or in the koha container placed at the doors during our opening hour.
