Welcome to The Good Food Box

The Good Food Box is a volunteer, nonprofit, produce buying cooperative to help everyone to include more fresh fruit and vegetables in their meals.

We work on food issues "from field to table' meaning that we focus on the entire system that puts food on our tables; from growing, processing and distribution of food to its purchasing, cooking and consumption.
We support several innovative grassroots projects that promote healthy eating, teach food preparation and cultivation, develop community capacity and create non market based forms of food distribution.
Public education on food security issues is a big part of our mandate.
We believe that food is vital to the health of individuals and communities, and that access to good, culturally acceptable, healthy food is a basic human right. 
The Good Food Box promotes policies such as adequate social assistance rates, sustainable local agriculture, universal funding of community based programs and nutrition education that will make food a priority at all levels of society.
 
How Can I Help?
Everyone is welcome to get involved with The Good Food Box program, and we are always looking for volunteers.
