Locations & Directions
To pick up food from the Fare Share food bank, you'll need to visit the pick-up location in either Port Hope or Cobourg. The maps below show where you can find us on pick-up days.
When you visit the food bank for the first time, you'll be assigned a pick-up card that you'll bring with you on your future visits. Identification is required for each individual family member – please don't forget this. This card will help you keep track of the dates we're open for pick-up and allows us the ability to monitor the number of people we serve. (These dates are different in Cobourg than they are in Port Hope). Each date on your card will be stamped once you've picked up your package for that day.
Please always feel free to contact us if you have any questions before or after visiting.
