Help Raise Money
Local Food Exchange moving and needs help
The Delaware Local Food Exchange (DLFE) is a Wilmington grocery store that is in the process of moving to a larger space in Trolley Square.
The five-year-old shop has helped put hundreds of thousands of dollars back into the area’s farming community, and now it needs help with funding for renovations and equipment.
The Indiegogo.com fundraising campaign began last month, and raised $5,095 of the $25,000 goal in the first two days. The campaign ends March 28.
Donors will receive coupons, organic produce, classes, tours and more, depending on the amount of money donated.
