Everyone
Eats!
What is this? Everyone Eats! is a new state program for
Brattleboro area towns. It's providing federal relief money to local
restaurants to make free to-go meals for residents of
Brattleboro, Dummerston, Guilford, Putney and Vernon.
Who is eligible? Anyone whose food situation has been
challenged by COVID-19 due to unemployment, underemployment,
homelessness, or other financial pressures.
What you will receive. Individually packaged COLD
ready-to-eat or heat and serve dinners for each person, children and
adults. Options available are omnivore, vegetarian, and vegan/GF.
When? The restaurants will provide meals
specifically for Dummerston residents who sign up with Dummerston
Cares. These dinners will be available for you each day Monday
through Thursday from August 10-27 . Dummerston Cares will pick them
up in West Brattleboro and and bring them
to the Dummerston Town Office parking lot where you can come for
them between 5 and 5:30 (time to be
confirmed).
If you prefer to pick up a meal yourself, you can go to the parking
lot of the Church Bulding on Flat St. in
Brattleboro between 4-6 p.m. beginning Aug. 3. Meals there are on
a first-come first-serve basis.
Limit on dinners. One meal per day per person in a
household is available.
Help your neighbor. If you know of anyone else with
COVID-19 challenges who would appreciate these dinners, let them know
about this program and have them call the Cares Message Line.
For more information and/or to fill out a sign-up form by
phone, call the Dummerston Cares Message Line (802-257-5800) and
leave your first name and telephone number. Your call will be
returned as soon as possible. Your privacy will be respected.
We need to know if you want dinners every day they're available
