Join the Network
In the past few years, several food based community organizations have emerged, from community garden initiatives, to the Community Food Mentors Network, to food advocacy groups like Plant a Row, Grow a Row. This development demonstrates a rising level of passion and engagement around the subject of food security. Individuals, groups and businesses came together to form a new policy network, called Good Food Greater Fredericton, to support further developments.
