Food Bank FAQs

  • Yes, most food banks operate on a first come first served appointment-only basis. Please call or email the food bank you would like to visit in order to set up an appointment.

    If you are not able to get through, leave a message with your name and phone number so someone can return your call.

  • The Kawartha Lakes Food Source is not a food bank itself. We are a non-profit food distribution agency which supplies 8 member food banks across the City of Kawartha Lakes. Each food bank is its own entity and therefore each operates with slight differences. The food we distribute to food banks is given on a fair share basis, divided up based on how many individuals each member food banks serve.

    We do own and operate the Lindsay Community Food Market, one of the member food banks mentioned. However, this food bank is located off-site and has a different phone number. To connect with the Lindsay Community Food Market Coordinator please call
    705-328-5758 or email lcfm@kawarthalakesfoodsource.com.

  • Each food bank’s intake process might look a little different but upon your first visit to a food bank a volunteer will ask you basic personal information questions to create a client profile for you. This information includes your name, household size, dietary restrictions, etc. If you do not feel comfortable sharing any information asked of you, please communicate that with the volunteer.

    To learn about the intake process for a particular food bank, please connect with them directly using the contact information in the map above.
