Soups and Sides

Soups and Sides is a weekly drop-in that welcomes community members to the Wolfville Farmers’ Market for soup and a side of community-building activities on Monday evenings from 5 - 6:30pm. 

Guests are welcome to make a voluntary donation to support the sustainability of the program, but this is not a requirement.

The program was developed by Acadia students and is supported by the Town, Acadia University and the Wolfville Farmers’ Market to help people build relationships while enjoying equitable access to delicious food that has been prepared by our community chef, Ayzhia Beaton.

Each week, leftover soups are donated to the ASU Food Cupboard in support of Acadia students.
