Grab & Go
Our Grab & Go Produce Bags are filled with recovered fresh produce — perfectly good fruits and vegetables rescued before going to waste. Because the produce is recovered, bag contents vary day by day based on what is fresh and available. Every bag is 100% plant-based.

A Shared Space for Collective Making and Community Life
East Boston Community Studio is a free, open studio space for collective making, learning, and creative exchange, stewarded by Maverick Landing Community Services (MLCS) as a long-term public resource for the East Boston community.
The studio operates as a cultural infrastructure, supporting connection, expression, and belonging through shared creative practice.
Participation is always free, no prior experience is required, and the space is designed to be inclusive and low-barrier.
Embedded within MLCS, the studio strengthens community life alongside the organization’s broader work supporting stability, access, and wellbeing across East Boston.
Access for All.
This program is about making healthy food accessible to everyone at deep discounts during a time of rising food and housing costs. By combining food recovery with community distribution, MLCS and the Fair Foods Distribution Network help families access fresh produce at prices far below traditional grocery stores.
Families who regularly purchase our $3 produce bags and $2 artisan bread bags instead of shopping exclusively at high-cost markets can significantly reduce household food expenses — potentially saving an estimated $7,000–$10,000 per year.
