• Social Supermarkets

    Fridays in five convenient locations.

  • Vicki, Customer

    “It’s helped me like you wouldn’t believe. Being disabled and on a pension it’s a battle to eat fresh.”

  • Jock, Volunteer

    “The best thing is supplying fresh veggies to people who can’t afford them. I like to see the smile on people’s faces when they come in and see the food.”

  • Michael, Customer

    “I don’t take very much as I don’t like throwing anything away. I grow veggies myself anyway. All those things make a difference. It’s as much to come down and have a chat more than anything.”

Welcome to the LinC Yarra Valley Social Supermarkets

Hardship can happen to anyone and the cost of fresh food and groceries can make it difficult for people in need to maintain a balanced diet. We have been working in partnership with local churches providing access to social supermarkets to the community for over ten years.

Every Friday fresh food and pantry items are available to those in need to ensure everyone has access to fresh ingredients to prepare healthy meals.  Please bring your own bags.

What is available?
Our social supermarkets offer a range of fresh seasonal fruit, vegetables, bread and other food and personal items that vary each week.
Who do we support:
Anyone that needs some extra support due to;
Low income or unemployment
Short and long term health problems
Family violence
Homelessness
Do I need to register?
If you wish to visit the Yarra Junction, Wandin North, Woori Yallock or Millgrove social supermarkets for the first time, you don’t need to register.
What if I live in the local area but can not get there on a Friday?
Please call us on 0472 644 476 to check if delivery is currently available from your closest social supermarket.
