On The House is a charitable trust that distributes surplus food for free throughout Taranaki. We do this in two ways. Direct to the public via four regular pop-up free stores and via sixty-five community organisations to support the work they do.
Everyone who lines up is served by On The House volunteers. Everyone is welcome. No judgement or barriers.

Is there a one-off event (wedding, funeral, office shout, etc) with surplus food?
Do you have an abundant vege garden? Fruit falling from the tree? Donate it to us and we will give it to those in need.
Big issues like hunger (food poverty) and food waste can be overwhelming to think about. On The House has found a practical way to make a real difference in your community. There are lots of ways to pitch in, from volunteering or donating, to just making some noise about the work we’re doing here!
Want to join the movement?
Reducing food waste, feeding people who need it, and building community through connection and participation.
