Gloucester Emergency Food Cupboard
2040 Arrowsmith Drive, Ottawa, ON, CA, K1J 8V9
Website: https://gefc.ca/
Since our founding in 1989, the Gloucester Emergency Food Cupboard (GEFC) has been a critical part of the social infrastructure in east Ottawa, providing over 4,100 residents a year with emergency food. We believe in providing healthy food and the dignity of choice. Working with our community we provide lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy children’s snacks, and culturally appropriate foods such as halal meats, cornmeal and dry beans. Recognizing that there are many ways to support food security, we also established our own farm plot and greenhouse at the Just Food Community Farm to engage the community in growing fresh food to share and programs that help people grow their own food.
