Share what we grow and produce at home, reduce food waste and connect all generations in the local area Based at the halls at Cargill Burrelton Church in Woodside, Burrelton, Perthshire, Every Tuesday and Friday we have our food waste reduction project 'The Shepheard’s Hut' open for local residents. Here we offer free food collected from Lidl (Blairgowrie) and Marks and Spencer’s (Perth) along with local growers when donations are available. We also offer food bought through Fareshare at prices vastly lower than supermarkets. These items are both fresh and store cupboard favourites, making it possible for households to reduce their weekly food bills whilst also helping to reduce food waste! We are a not “for profit”project, meaning all money taken is put back into ordering future products and running the project. This food is also used to make the soup and cakes served in our Community Cafe. Our Community Cafe meets on Tuesdays from 12noon - 1:30pm offering freshly homemade soup, bread rolls and baking. This service is free of charge, though donations are always welcomed. Together Time, held on a Friday afternoon, provides the opportunity for members of the community to meet up for a chat over a cup of tea or coffee served with biscuits or baking. We run our free Busy Bees playgroup sessions on a Monday and Thursday from 9:30-12noon, where children aged five and under can come along with their parent/guardian/carer and play together, developing social skills and explore through learning/play activities in a fun and safe environment. There are several social events held throughout the year, including Haggis Lunch and Christmas Lunch provided at the Community Cafe. The Church Guild also provide a Harvest Supper which is also well supported by members of the community.We are always looking for opportunities to bring the community together in positive ways and encourage social inclusion by helping each other.
