This is what our clients received in their fruit & vegetable bags today – bananas, apples, pears, lemon, oranges, kiwi, onions, green onions, lettuce, radishes, zucchini, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, mushrooms, pepper, cucumbers, paddy pan squash and carrots. We purchased the Fruit & Vegetable bags this week from Community Development Council Quinte the Good Food Box. We also added produce that we purchased from Lakeshore Farms and Pierson’s Foodland. The paddy pan squash and some zucchini was donated by Penny & Neil Sipkes and some lettuce by local gardeners. These fresh fruit bags are part of the Good Food Access Fund, we are grateful to the Government of Canada and Community Food Centres Canada for providing essential funding to help us offer emergency food relief in our community. Thanks Justin Trudeau@mclaudeebibeau@AFFC-Canada.
