Taking a peek into the Fair Frome Community Pantry may reveal some surprises! The shelves are stocked with a range of produce that shoppers can choose from ranging from toiletries to fresh produce to frozen goods. Opened in 2023, the Community Pantry caters for a variety of dietary requirements and offers a wide variety of food and household goods.

  • The Community Pantry provides members with access to reduced cost food options.
  • Members pay a small membership fee every time they visit the Pantry. This fee covers the cost of licenses and delivery costs.
  • Members will then have access to food from the Pantry including store cupboard items, fresh produce, refrigerated items and toiletries and household products.

Membership details

There are two membership levels:

  • Level 1 membership, £3 per week – aimed at smaller households, typically you choose around 6 – 8 items items.
  • Level 2 membership, £5 per week – for that you can select approximately 10-12 items, so we’d recommend that if you’re shopping for more people.

You’ll be able to pay by cash, debit or credit card. This weekly fee covers chilled food, store cupboard foods, toiletries and household items. We provide free  fruit and vegetables, and some shorter dated items. This means the total value of your shopping will be around £15 – £18, but will only cost you £3 or £5. The selection of items changes each week based on what we receive in our delivery.
