Wood Banks & Fuel Poverty in Maine

May 9 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free – $20

*Update: this panel was originally hybrid but is now fully remote (on Zoom). Registrants will receive access to the Zoom link ahead of the event.*

Join us for a panel presentation featuring wood bank leaders from around the state of Maine who will share their stories of organizing and running wood banks. Sharing similarities with food pantries, wood banks provide firewood to neighbors facing heating insecurity and have a long standing in Maine. Recent federal funding and ever-increasing demand has tripled the number of wood banks in New England in the last ten years. Please join us to learn about these grassroots, volunteer organizations that use local wood banks to meet community needs.

Snacks and hot beverages will be provided to those attending in-person.
