Shop every Wednesday to support our community

Every month, we donate .5% of our Wednesday sales to an organization nominated and voted on by our member-owners. That organization is also invited to come into Rising Tide and present information and takeaways for the public to be educated and aware of this organization’s efforts within our community.

The Newcastle Ecumenical Food Pantry has been serving the Midcoast area since 1989- primarily the towns of Newcastle, Damariscotta and Nobleboro, but they do not turn anyone away. It was founded in 1989 by Ruth Ives and Gail Berry. Today it is the cooperative effort of eight area churches and completely volunteer run, with the goal of addressing food insecurity locally. It is located on the ground level of Second Congregational Church in Newcastle. It is open every Tuesday, 9am – 11am
