Excerpt:
A weekly grocery market has made affordable, culturally familiar produce more accessible, offering families a reliable source of healthy food close to home. Urban agriculture projects have helped distribute hundreds of pounds of fresh produce within the community.
These efforts are supported by workshops that teach participants about composting, seed saving, and food sovereignty, equipping them with the knowledge and confidence to sustain these activities.
The impact of Rexdale SNAP reaches beyond food access. It helps grow leadership within the community and lays a foundation for resilience in the face of social and environmental pressures. By linking food security with environmental stewardship and community empowerment, this holistic approach is creating sustainable change.
In a time when neighbourhoods across Canada are grappling with food insecurity, climate challenges, and economic strain, Rexdale offers a clear example of how lasting change can happen when communities are supported in leading their own solutions.
