A stronger food relief system means stronger, more connected Tasmanian communities. Thanks to a $2.5 million investment by the Tasmanian Government, Loaves and Fishes Tasmania will be empowered to support greater access to good, nutritious food for those who need it most. This isn’t just about meals—it’s about creating lasting resilience through collaboration and supporting a thriving Tasmanian food economy. By upgrading infrastructure, working hand-in-hand with local farmers and producers, creating new jobs, traineeships, and apprenticeships, and fostering better habits and understanding around good food, we’re building a future where everyone can thrive. Together, we’re transforming food relief into a foundation for hope, opportunity, and community strength, creating a sustainable system centered on good food for all Tasmanian's.
