The Western NL Food Hub is set to relaunch in 2023 with plans to expand its services and reach.
An initiative of Food First NL, the Western Food Hub was launched last year as a pilot project, aimed at increasing the availability of local food in Western Newfoundland.
Customers were connected to local producers through an online store and a centralized collection, preparation and pick-up location in Corner Brook. Labour was provided through a partnership with Choices for Youth.
Food First NL is getting ready to resume the Western Food Hub in 2023 with the help of $900,000 dollars from the Northpine Foundation.
Food Fist NL will hire a Project Coordinator in the coming months with the hub set to relaunch in the late spring or early summer of 2023.
