Hi neighbours,

Hamilton has a new supermarket! And the best part is the food is all free. Yes, FREE!

Over the last four years non-profit Kaivolution has redistributed 574 tonnes of edible food that would otherwise go to the tip. Now, just in time for Christmas, they've got a shop where people can stock up.

The shop at 200 Commerce Street will open Monday to Friday between 4 to 5pm, and in January the extended hours will be 12pm to 4pm. To read more, click here.

Will you be taking advantage of Kaivolution's new store? Do you know someone who would benefit from some extra food at this expensive time of year? What are some other tactics for making sure edible food is not going to waste?
