South Shore Food Bank’s Thanksgiving effort moves up to 25,000 pounds of food across the South Shore in just a matter of days — and the scale of what happens inside that Rockland warehouse is something most people never get to see.

From early-morning produce shipments to hundreds of Thanksgiving boxes assembled by volunteers, including more than twenty-five employees from Stop & Shop, this is a regional operation built to support thousands of families during one of the most important weeks of the year.

Our new blog post takes you inside the warehouse to show how the food moves, who powers the work, and how partners like the Weymouth Food Pantry, Scituate Food Pantry, United Way of South Central MA, College Hype, Church of the Immaculate Conception, the Mary Bielecki Foundation , and so many others make the effort possible.

And there’s more coming: an upcoming behind-the-scenes video and a Part Two blog featuring interviews with Chef Paul Wahlberg, Massachusetts Senator Patrick O'Connor, and Jamall Griffin from Stop & Shop — plus a look at final distribution days across the region.

What a night.

The November be; connected networking event at Barrett's Alehouse West Bridgewater brought together small business owners, nonprofits, realtors, creatives, and community leaders from across the South Shore — all in one room, all showing up for connection that actually means something.

The energy felt different in the best way. Conversations were easy. People lingered. New ideas sparked. Attendees told us it was the first networking event in years that felt worth the time, and honestly, we couldn’t agree more.

Huge thank-you to Barrett’s Alehouse for creating such a welcoming space. As GM Luke Morel shared, being involved in local community events is part of who they are — and you could feel that in every detail.

We’ve put together a full blog recap (with photos) on the night, including a closer look at why events like this matter, how be; connected is strengthening the local business ecosystem, and a spotlight on all the organizations who joined in.

Some of the organizations that attended are tagged so you can discover and follow them, too!

If you haven’t checked out a be; connected event yet — the next one is worth marking on your calendar.

We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with North Easton Savings Bank telling the stories of the community businesses that are locally invested.

NESB’s commitment to investing in the community is front and center as we engage in a campaign to highlight businesses like Odd Fellows Barber Co..

Check out Mike’s story, celebrate his success, and help us amplify small business and non-profits on the south shore by sharing!

A little throwback to one of our favorite days from June — the West Bridgewater River Walk. Sunshine, trails, local vendors, and neighbors stopping by to celebrate the land we’re lucky to have right in our backyard.

This year’s walk brought together so many people who make West Bridgewater feel like a community, from nature lovers wandering the trails to local makers and organizations set up along the path. We pulled the whole day together in a recap — photos, details, and some of the partners who helped make it happen.

Catch the highlights on our blog!

The Town of West Bridgewater community is small, but mighty. We've had the honor of supporting West Bridgewater Food Pantry, Inc. through our Firefly Project. Seeing our local small business buddies Aunties Creations LLC doing their part to give back to our community is one of the (many) reasons we dig them 😎

Let's all keep doing our part to build a strong network of support for our local non-profits and businesses during the giving season.

Thank you Natalie Boyd (Auntie’s Creations) and Keri Mateus for conducting a food drive for our pantry and delivering all the food to us! Your generosity is greatly appreciated and we thank all those that contributed!

Access to food shouldn’t depend on your zip code—or a crisis. South Shore Food Bank is building a regional model that pairs logistics with dignity: centralized cold storage and warehousing, the Feed the Wey mobile pantry, Made with Love Meals, a community Pantry Garden, and a redesigned experience at Randolph Friendly Food Pantry that feels like a neighborhood market.

We pulled the whole story together—how it works, why it matters, and what’s next. Dive in below!

SSFB partners mentioned include: Weymouth Food Pantry, Friendly Food Pantry, Interfaith Social Services, Old South Union Church - Weymouth, and The Greater Boston Food Bank

A quiet morning at Cochesett Preserve — the kind that reminds you how lucky we are to have spaces like this right here in West Bridgewater.

The turtle sanctuary, the open fields, the shifting light — all of it changing with the season. Summer slowing down, fall just beginning to take its turn.

Places like this keep us connected. They remind us to pause, look closer, and find inspiration in what’s right in front of us.

Over the past year, our work and mission have continued to evolve; and our website has evolved with it. Our refreshed site reflects who we are today: a creative studio rooted in community, connection, and purpose.

Along with a new look, we’re introducing our blog — a space for the stories behind the work and a window into our partners’ impact. We’ll be sharing features that highlight the nonprofits, small businesses, and community organizations we collaborate with, and the people behind them.

Our first story, "Finding be; and How a Chance Connection Became a Firefly Project", tells the story of how a single conversation grew into something meaningful — a partnership rooted in authenticity, visibility, and belonging.

We invite you to explore the new site and follow along as we continue sharing stories that remind us what creative work can do when it’s built on purpose.
