About this organization
We are firmly rooted in the long tradition of community food initiatives for which our region is well known. At the heart of our work is a desire to connect the dots in our food system and address three main challenges that remain stubbornly entrenched in our local food landscape:
- a) the lack of access to healthy food for individuals and families living on low-incomes;
- b) a low and shrinking annual income for local farmers and producers; and
- c) an economy that treats food as though it is simply a commodity, and not a basic human right.
Nourish is part of a broad movement which seeks to give food more importance in our communities, our economy, and our everyday lives. It seeks to feed our region through a dynamic combination of innovative infrastructure, new connections and strong partnerships. To achieve this, our project is supporting the creation of a vibrant network of places for food throughout Peterborough City and County.
When is it open?
The Nourish Project is open Mon - Fri 9:00am - 4:30pm.
