About us
Neighbors feeding neighbors since 1987
Northside Food Share began as one shelf of canned goods in a church basement on Salem Avenue. Today we run a 12,000-square-foot warehouse with 9 staff and about 300 volunteers.
We buy fresh food from Ohio farms, rescue groceries from local stores and share all of it for free, without long forms.
