NOW OPEN – In Person
The CHCN Food Cupboard has returned to an in-person shopping model which will allow community members to come and choose which foods or products are desired and or needed. As a health centre, our goal is to make as many fresh and whole foods available to community members – with a focus on local produce when possible.
Community members in need of support around food are welcome to visit our Food Cupboard on Thursdays from 9:30am – 12:30pm. No appointments are needed and there will always be a welcome space for individuals to enjoy a coffee and or snack!
Please bring your own reusable bags or boxes. We are located at 99 Toronto Rd, Port Hope – Main Floor in the Multi-purpose room.
For those looking to support our food security initiatives, cash donations are greatly appreciated as it enables us to work with our community partners to bring in more fresh and nutrient dense foods.
For anyone who was receiving delivery over the past few years, we are sorry that we can no longer provide this service due to a number of circumstances. However, we are very lucky to have the support of the Fare-Share Food Bank, who will help support community members with a delivered food box.
If you have any questions, concerns or need any assistance as we transition to a new model in supporting the community with access to food, please call the Community Health Centre at 905-885-2626 (extension 212 or 235).
FareShare Food Bank
