Canadian Foodgrains Bank is a partnership of Canadian Churches and agencies working together to end global hunger, working with locally based organization in developing countries to meet emergency food need, achieve long term solutions to hunger and work to foster informed action by Canadians and governments to support this international cause.
The vision of Canadian Foodgrains Bank is a world without hunger, believing that humankind is created in the image of God and that it is God's desire that no person should go hungry. Availability of food and access to that food is fundamental to life itself - food is required to sustain life, to provide strength for work, and to share in the fellowship of one's family and community.
Stone United Church is a proud partner of Canadian Foodgrains Bank using creative initiatives to raise awareness of Canadian Foodgrains and fundraising to support the cause.
Locally throughout the summer, Stone United Church has a Harvest Table by the road where plants, fruits and vegetables are left to share. Please take as you need and give as you are able.
Stone United Church provides seeds in the spring for planting and have an annual event on World Food Day in October including lunch and competitions for pumpkins, sunflowers and the ever popular zucchini races.
