About Me

Serving free hot vegetarian meals to those in need. Saturdays- 2pm Court Square.

Cooking starts at 11am at Galloway Church at the corner of Cooper and Walker.

Given recent events the presence of a Food not Bombs group in Memphis is vital. It is a near perfect pro-active statement on the issues currently at hand in the nation (violence, hate, militarism) and brings focus to local issues (hunger poverty, homelessness) that are often ignored.

Memphis FNB is a dedicated but small group and would like to see the chapter grow. We can always use a helping hand for food pick ups, transportation, tabling, cooking and serving. If you are available to help, if you would like to make a donation (food, clothing, supplies), if you know of possible food donors, or if you would like more information please contact us: [email protected] or send us a msg through here.

Memphis FNB is a program of the Midsouth Peace and Justice Center .

We also have a Yahoo Group , you can check that for more info.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

We Need Help!!! Volunteers are needed to help assist with:

Food donation pick ups (from stores) We need people who can go to the store on Fridays to pick up food donations. We can usually get stuff from Wild Oats, but if you know of other places willing to donate food, by all means try them too!

We cook every Saturday morning (11am) at Galloway Church - located at the corner of Cooper and Walker in Midtown. Join us! We can always use a few extra hands.

No experience necessary, it's easy!

We need people to help take the food downtown and serve it on Saturday afternoons between 2-4pm. The location is at Court Square which is located downtown on Court Street.

Make a donation (food, clothing, supplies)

Tell us about of possible food donors. We can always use more food. The demand usually exceeds the supply, especially in the winter when donations tend to fall off.

To help out contact us by email ([email protected]), by phone (901.725.4990), or send us a message on myspace.
