THIS HELPS
Increase access to healthy, local goods

Minimize food miles and more!
Our region is losing more agricultural land compared to other parts of the province which is why it's so vital to help our local producers thrive. Without them, our environment and food sustainability suffers.
HOW IT Works
For a convenient shopping experience, our online food hub allows consumers to purchase from more than one vendor at a time. All products will be from the Killick Coast, including food and horticulture producers and more.
Orders will be taken bi-weekly, packed in a food-safe environment and with multiple pick-up locations to choose from, it couldn’t be easier to shop local! You order, we tell the farmers/producers what you need and they get it to us.
And since we all get busy, we make it easier for people to contribute to the Northeast Avalon Food Bank by allowing them to add a donation to their shopping cart
