Find bounty in every Good Food Box.
Good Food Boxes are volunteer packed with fresh, high-quality, culturally appropriate vegetables and fruits. With the box menu changing weekly, each Good Food Box presents a convenient and affordable way to eat good healthy food.
Getting a box of good healthy food, whether pre-cut for your convenience or supersized for your family, is important to FoodShare. But getting a Good Food Box isn’t like receiving any other delivery. Ordering through your neighbourhood Good Food Box coordinator, you’ll meet people from a few doors away or a few floors above AND eat healthy food grown near you.
Good Food Boxes:
- Feature seasonal Ontario-grown products whenever possible, supporting local farmers and saving fuel. Each week’s box comes with recipes and news in the Good Food Newsletter.
- Include international favourites like bananas, mangoes, okra and more!
- Are more affordable than retail stores because of FoodShare’s bulk buying capacity.
How Good Food Boxes work:
- You order a Good Food Box through your local Good Food Box stop volunteer.
- We deliver freshly packed boxes to your stop, either a local community member or organization.
- You say hi to your neighbourhood stop volunteer, pickup your box and start cooking!
