Live — community food network active across Australia

The food crisis is already here. This is what neighbours do about it.

Rising fuel costs. Cyclones. Floods. Supply chain pressure. PantryShare AU connects Australian households to share, swap, and support each other — suburb by suburb, postcode by postcode.

Not charity. Community.

PantryShare AU is a free community app — post food you have, browse listings nearby, request what you need. No means testing. No judgment. Just neighbours helping neighbours.

Famine & Feast AU is the campaign behind it — drawing attention to the structural pressures driving food insecurity across Australia, and building the infrastructure for communities to respond.

Priority zones during disasters Cyclone, flood & fire areas flagged automatically
Why now
Fuel costs up 40%+ since 2022 — remote and regional Australia absorbs this first, through food price spikes and supply delays.
Cyclone Narelle devastated Exmouth, Carnarvon, and Shark Bay. Communities are still rebuilding supply chains months later.
Northern Rivers NSW flooding displaced thousands. Food networks that existed before the crisis responded faster than any official channel.
Bass Strait supply disruption cuts Tasmania off from mainland food supply chains — any storm, strike, or breakdown impacts the whole state.
Tourists get stranded too. The Stuart Highway, Gibb River Road, and Nullarbor leave thousands of travellers dependent on the communities around them.

Find your community.

Each state page has local priority zones, disaster hotspots, tourist angles, and regional press contacts.
