Today’s Maine Sunday Telegram includes an article about how chef Eric Bufo at Wayside Food Programs uses donated ingredients to prepare meals for members of the community.
Bufo isn’t running a fancy farm-to-table restaurant. He’s kitchen manager and head chef at Wayside Food Programs, where he works with a rotating volunteer crew to cook as many as 800 free meals a week for Greater Portland homeless shelters, schools, senior homes and other community centers where Mainers need hot, nourishing meals.
