Yuletide Charity Food Drive

Every year, Circle Sanctuary does a Yuletide Charity Food Drive. We collect canned goods at our Winter Solstice events, including the Winter Solstice Pageant in Madison, Wisconsin, and the Community Yule Festival at Circle Sanctuary Nature Preserve.

We donate the food we collect to the nearby Barneveld Food Pantry, which is an interfaith cooperative community outreach service of area churches in and around the villages of Barneveld and Ridgeway. The Barneveld Food Pantry, which is headquartered at Barneveld Lutheran Church, is affiliated with the Second Harvest Food Bank of Southern Wisconsin.
