A local program is providing healthy and local meals for students through various programs in the community of Dufferin and Caledon.
The Headwaters Local Food Club is one of the Headwaters Food and Farming Alliance’s (HFFA) Farm to School programs. Parents as well as staff can sign up for a membership which will allow them to receive a “meal-in-a-bag”, which are delivered to the students at their school for them to take home.
HFFA is supported through their registered charity, Headwaters Communities in Action.
All meals are locally sourced from different distributors in the Headwaters region.
