Food Banks
Chebucto Connections Produce packs - if you live in Spryfield/Sambro Loop area, you can register your household to receive one produce pack per month. These produce packs are intended for those who are low income and struggling with food insecurity. We rely on honesty and self-identification and ask that if you are having an abundant week and are not in need, please let us know so we can give it to the next person in line.
