A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS!

The North Okanagan Good Food Box would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the many individual community members who make the Good Food Box possible.

Every dollar and every volunteer hour donated goes towards helping local families eat fresh local produce every month.

We would also like to acknowledge the generosity of our charitable donors, government agencies, corporate sponsors, partner agencies, distribution sites and media outlets for your ongoing support.

Your continued commitment makes a world of difference in the hearts and bellies of those who depend on the North Okanagan Good Food Box.

Thank you for your commitment to a healthier North Okanagan!

Distribution Sites

All Saints Anglican Church Vernon

We are very grateful to the staff and congregation of All Saints Anglican Church for hosting the central distribution site for the Good Food Box program for over 20 years at no charge for the third week of the month.
This allows us to hold the program, receive and distribute bulk produce for outer areas, weigh and separate produce into individual bins for distribution and delivery.
During the pandemic, the church allowed us to continue, deeming it as an essential service.

Trinity United Church Vernon

Gives the program use of their lobby area once per month to distribute Good Food Boxes.
In addition, Trinity United Church has donated funds to sponsor 124 GFBs for the Vernon Pregnancy Outreach Program.

Our latest addition to the Vernon area pick up locations. The St. John’s Lutheran Church in the Okanagan Landing area has graciously offered to donate their space for a couple hours on the third Thursday of the month for GFB volunteers to distribute produce boxes.
