At Pasture Provisions, we’ve always believed good food should go further than just a plate. That also means reducing waste wherever possible and ensuring good food doesn’t get thrown away.

But it also means showing up for our community when possible.

That’s why we support Denver Community Fridges! These refrigerators are part of a local, volunteer-run network of community fridges and pantries across the city. These fridges are open 24/7, stocked by businesses and people alike, and available to anyone who needs food, no questions asked. 

It’s a simple idea: Take what you need. Leave what you can.

Through this system, fresh produce, prepared meals, and groceries are shared directly within the community. This helps reduce food waste while making sure more people have access to real food. 


What This Means For Us

When we have any goods that we can't sell, whether it’s vegetables, eggs, or other products that won’t make it into orders, it's important to us that we don’t let it go to waste.

We donate what we can to help stock these fridges. Because food should be eaten, not thrown away. Taking care of our community is just as important as running the business.


Why It Matters

Food insecurity and food waste exist side by side more often than they should.

Organizations like Denver Community Fridges are helping bridge that gap powered entirely by people, not institutions, and built on the idea that communities take care of their own. 

It’s not charity. It’s neighbors helping neighbors.


How You Can Be A Part Of It

If you’re in the Denver Metro Area, you can:

  • Drop off fresh food or store-bought meals

  • Help clean or organize a fridge

  • Or simply spread the word

And if you’re already supporting us, just know that your orders help make this kind of work possible.


We’re always working to be more sustainable, more responsible, and more connected to the community around us.

This is one small piece of that. Thanks for being a part of it!
