About Us

Sisters’ Camelot is a collectively-run Minneapolis 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1997 that is focused on food justice, waste reduction, sustainable living, community building, and youth education. We are 100% volunteer-run!

Sisters’ Camelot serves our community through two main programs.  One is that we distribute approximately 6,000-8,000 pounds per week of free organic groceries.  We deliver by bicycle and car to people who are at high risk during the pandemic, such as the elderly and disabled.  We also supply community kitchens that are cooking for unhoused encampments, Indigenous elders, etc. In addition, we supply local food shelves.

Secondly, we serve free healthy prepared food from a vintage bus that has been converted to a licensed commercial kitchen.  Our kitchen bus allows us to feed people and to nourish the relationships that come through preparing and eating food together.

Programs

Kitchen Bus

We serve free healthy prepared food from a vintage bus that has been converted to a licensed commercial kitchen. Our kitchen bus allows us to feed people and to nourish the relationships that come through preparing and eating food together. Our community meals take place in socioeconomically disadvantaged neighborhoods. We also deliver meals to those who are unhoused. We provide thousands of meals per year to a wide variety of community members.

Foodshare

We currently distribute pre-packed bags of groceries as well as bulk produce at a variety of locations on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Please check the schedule for these events on our facebook page by clicking here. (You don’t need a Facebook account to view).

We continue to take Covid-19 seriously and follow masking/sanitizing/physical distancing recommendations.

Please reach out to us at collective@sisterscamelot.org if you would like to provide a site for us to do a foodshare, or if you are a community kitchen requesting bulk donations. 

Sisters' Garden

At Sisters’ Camelot we believe that true food solidarity comes from local food production.  Where there is land to be cultivated, we can grow food.

Sisters’ Camelot does not currently cultivate a garden of our own; we are, however, open to working with community gardening activist and practitioners in promoting the values of permaculture in urban community gardening.  
 

If you have a lot in mind where you would like to create a garden contact us and we can offer some advice or collaborate.

May we cultivate regional abundance and community solidarity.
