Our History
In 2021, local producers came together with a shared vision to build a better food system through a grassroots community development model that fosters self-sufficiency and social impact in Northwestern Ontario.
The 807 Food Co-op & Food Hub connects communities across Northwestern Ontario through not for profit services like underemployment training programs, winter lunches, skill building workshops and a food exchange hub for local food producers.
