“I think this is very good. People coming together and helping each other. This is the first community I've ever had.”

The first Community Food Centre in the east

The Dartmouth North CFC is located in North Dartmouth, an under-served and high-needs neighbourhood with a lack of community gathering spaces. The area is home to significant senior and immigrant populations: 13.5% of the population is aged 65, and many live alone or on a fixed income; 31% of households are single-parent families; and immigrants make up 6.4% of the population, a number that is expected to grow in coming years. 

Established in 2015, Dartmouth North Community Food Centre is a partnership between the Dartmouth Family Centre and Community Food Centres Canada. The Dartmouth Family Centre has served the Dartmouth North community for years, providing services that promote the healthy development of individuals, families, and communities. In building a Community Food Centre, they've expanded on this work by bringing people together to grow, cook, share, and advocate for good food for all.
