THE People’s Kitchen is a community kitchen dedicated to providing home cooked meals for individuals and families who are in need of a free hot and nutritious dinner for any reason. There are meat and vegetarian options, salads or soups and desert and meals are served up each Wednesday from 4:30-6:30 at Maleny RSL. The great thing about The People’s Kitchen is how many community groups and local businesses work together to make this happen. Local businesses and individuals donate food which is then served or cooked up into meals by the three people running the kitchen. Attendance has grown from under 10 people when it started to nearly 50 people. The People’s Kitchen helps facilitate social connections within the community, provide meals for individuals and families in need, and helps reduce food waste from local businesses.
