We design and facilitate community programs and partnerships in small and rural communities.
What is a Witch Walk?
We dress up like witches and walk around town to collect non-perishable food donations for local food banks!
Good Witches, Bad Witches, and Sandwiches.

Nope! Dressing up is optional but encouraged!

2025 Melbourne Witch Walk
The 2025 Melbourne Witch Walk was a fantastic success.
New friends were made, lots of laughs and cackles echoed throughout the town as we wandered, and we were able to pass along a great collection of food items to local pantries and food banks to support Melbourne and Area residents.
Thank you to everyone who got involved, helped with collection or shared food items, and to all of the amazing "witches" who joined us in the 2025 Melbourne Witch Walk.

2024 Melbourne Witch Walk
The 3rd Annual Melbourne Witch Walk was a wonderful way to spend a Friday evening in a small Ontario town!
A local food truck, activities and the library, and lots of Witches wandering around.
Our food collection total was bigger than pervious years, and required two car loads full to deliver all the goods!

2023 Melbourne Witch Walk
With a trail of mini wagons, and a gaggle of Witches of all sorts and ages, we walked with an impressive collection of canned food into the sunset.
The 2nd annual Witch Walk was a success!
Together with local businesses and seniors apartments we collected over 420 lbs of food!

2022 Melbourne Witch Walk
I ask a lot of one-off questions people think are silly at the time... But there's usually a reason, and a "brilliant" idea attached!
The original idea has adjusted slightly from the first inquiry, but I think it's pretty special that the annual Melbourne Witch Walk started out with a question like this;
"Anyone want to dress up like witches and bike around town some time before Halloween? #imseriousthough"
We were able to collect a total of 152 items, filling a total of 5 boxes!
