Meals on Wheels of Ridgefield, CT

Meals on Wheels of Ridgefield, CT Meals on Wheels of Ridgefield, CT is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Meals on Wheels of Ridgefield, CT was founded in 1972 in the basement of Saint Mary School, delivering 24 meals/week to those in our community who were unable to prepare their own meals due to age, disability or recovery from illness, injury or surgery. Today, we prepare and deliver around 40,000 meals a year out of our commercial kitchen in Ballard Green. We have only 5 part-time employees and ov

er 160 volunteers who ensure our wheels keep turning. Lunch and dinner is available up to 7 days/week, and our meals are freshly prepared with plenty of healthy ingredients. We receive no federal or state aid and we rely on the generosity of the community to fund our program.

One more summer weekend. ☀️

Before the schedules fill up and the season begins to change, we’re making room for a few more of the little things that make summer feel like summer.

Something delicious. A little extra time outside. Someone you enjoy. And maybe absolutely nothing at all. 💚

How many can you check off this weekend?

Let’s make summer last just a little bit longer.

Summer isn’t over until we’ve had one more treat. ☀️

So for this week’s This or That, we’re choosing between two classics:

🍦 Ice cream cone — preferably eaten outside and melting faster than you can keep up
🔥 S’mores — toasted over a fire and just messy enough to be perfect

Which one gets your vote for one last taste of summer?

Tell us below. 💚

We’re not quite done with summer yet. ☀️🌿

Today’s menu is making the most of the season with Summer Pasta with Zucchini & Basil — a creamy, comforting dish filled with some of the flavors we’re not quite ready to say goodbye to.

Because September may be here, but summer still has a few delicious things left to give us. 💚

School has started, September is here… but we’re holding onto summer for just a little bit longer. ☀️

This week’s decorated meal bags arrived with colorful fruits and veggies, happy little details, and a reminder we’re taking to heart: enjoy every minute.

There’s still a little summer left to enjoy — and always room for A Little Extra Love. 💚

The backpacks may be packed, but summer isn’t finished with us yet. ☀️

There’s still time to eat outside, kick off your shoes, notice what’s growing, stay out a little later and spend time with the people who make the days better.

This weekend, leave a little room for summer. 💚

What are you checking off the list?

One foot in summer, one foot in what comes next. ☀️👟

👟 Sneakers or 👣 bare feet?

We’re not ready to say goodbye to summer just yet. ☀️🍅

Today’s menu featured a Greek tortellini salad filled with tomatoes, cucumber, olives and feta — fresh, colorful and full of the flavors we’re still happily holding onto.

Because the calendar may be inching toward fall, but there’s still plenty of summer left on the plate. 💚

What’s one summer flavor you’re not ready to give up?

A little extra love for the first days back. 💚✏️

Backpacks are being packed, classrooms are filling up, and somehow we’re still not quite ready to say goodbye to summer.

These colorful bags arrived in our kitchen just in time — covered in sunshine, flowers, rainbows, sweet treats and plenty of love for the neighbors who receive them.

A cheerful little reminder that a new season can begin while we hold onto a little bit of the old one. ☀️🌈❤️

To all of our Ridgefield students, families, teachers and school staff heading back: we hope your year starts with a little extra love.

☀️ **Peak Summer Weekend Checklist**

There are some things that only feel *this good* right now.

A stop at a farm stand. Dinner outside. Something fresh from the garden. Flowers at their fullest. Sharing something good with someone else.

You don’t need to check off the whole list — just choose one and enjoy it.

Summer moves quickly.

**This weekend, savor what’s in season. 💚**
