In December, many of us turn our focus to feeding people we don’t know, especially through food donations or volunteering at emergency food programs. We feed community members with a hopeful sense of Until. We hope that the food they receive will last until their next cheque comes in. And we hope that they will only need this help until they get a decent job (Statistics Canada tells us that most food-insecure people already have jobs. However, these jobs just don’t pay enough to keep food on the table).
This Fall, like so many other things, we adjusted our canning classes to move on-line! Of course, we miss our in person classes where we all get together to create a recipe & the joy of hearing the jars pop & a job well done, but we did still have lots of fun in our classes regardless.

It developed out of the Peterborough Food Action Network (PFAN) which, for 13 years, has promoted community food security in Peterborough City, County, and local First Nations.
