Good Food Bank

Healthy food is for everybody

The Good Food Bank focuses on providing fresh whole healthy food options in a warm and friendly environment. Community members in need may take home an emergency 3-5 day supply of fresh fruits, vegetables and pantry staples once per month.

What you need to access the Good Food Bank

We understand how difficult everything can become when you don't have enough to eat. At the Good Food Bank we make it easy for you to receive a 3-5 day supply of fresh food and staples every month. Here's what you'll need to bring in with you:

  • Photo identification for yourself and all adults in your home.
  • A piece of mail with your name and address on it.

How it Works

Lance, Irene and Kiefer's Story

This is the story of a young family that have become regulars at The Table, which they kindly agreed to share so others could understand the impact that The Table has in our community.

Grow a Row - Share Your Harvest

Do you have a little extra room in the garden?A row of beans in a garden.

Why not plant an extra row this season and donate your harvest to The Table Community Food Centre. Donated produce will be distributed through our Good Food Bank and used in community meals.

Core foods from the Good Food Bank

Because we don’t believe that just any food is good enough, starting in January, 2014 Core Foods will be stocked in the food bank!

Letters to The Table

Since it launched in 2012, The Table has grown into a valued — many would say indispensable — part of its community. Staff recently received letters from two community members describing the extent to which The Table has impacted their lives. 

I would like to thank The Table Community Food Centre for teaching me more about whole, healthy food. 

I have been involved with the Advocacy Office, the Good Food Bank, community meals, cooking and gardening. This has helped me to slowly transform my family's eating habits. We were eating mostly out of boxes and cans, and now my family is eating more fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains.
