Q1:Does Food Not Bombs get its food from dumpsters?
Food Not Bombs does not get food out of dumpsters. We arrange the collection of produce, bread and other food that can't be sold from grocery stores, bakeries, and produce markets. They put this food to the side and we pick it up at a scheduled time. This way we build personal relationships with local food providers and are able to collect larger amounts of better quality food with more regularity.
Q2: When was Food Not Bombs founded?
Food Not Bombs started after the May 24, 1980 protest to stop the Seabrook Nuclear power station north of Boston in New Hampshire in the United States.
