Greater Forest Lawn 55+ Society - Good Food Box

The Good Food Box (GFB) makes top-quality, fresh fruit and vegetables available in a way that does not stigmatize people, fosters community development and promotes healthy eating.

The GFB gives people in Calgary and surrounding areas a way to buy fresh fruit and vegetables at a very low cost. A hands-up as opposed to a hands-out program, the GFB operates by buying bulk quantities of fresh, top-quality produce directly from farmers and distributors through the Food n More program.

The boxes, which are delivered according to a city-wide and surrounding areas schedule, contain the maximum produce possible for the price.

Participants pre-order their boxes from Greater Forest Lawn 55+ Society. Once a month the boxes are delivered by Community Kitchen staff and dedicated volunteers to each depot.
