Check public food-sharing points in Warsaw
In Warsaw, there are food-sharing points, offering an alternative to traditional food assistance. These are places where residents can leave food that they won’t consume but is still safe to eat. These public points allow food exchange between those in need and those willing to share. By using these points, you can find various food products, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, bread, as well as prepared meals.
If you wish to use food-sharing points, check the list of available locations in Warsaw by clicking here: [Food-sharing points in Warsaw]. This page contains detailed information about the locations, opening hours, and rules of use. It’s a great way to access necessary food products while contributing to reducing food waste.
