2022 Loaves and Fishes logo SimcoeLoaves and Fishes Growing Project – Simcoe
A growing project in support of the Canadian Foodgrains Bank, located throughout South Simcoe County. The Loaves and Fishes Growing Project began in the fall of 1997 when a group of local farmers and individuals gathered at the Bond Head United Church. They made plans to grow corn, soybeans and wheat to donate to the Canadian Food Grains Bank. The biblical story of the Loaves and Fishes highlights that when a little is given to feed the hungry it is multiplied many times over. Our efforts make a difference no matter how small. This was evident once again in 2020, our project’s 23rd year. The CFGB is a Christian organization, which consists of 15-member church denominations that provide food and development assistance to people in need through the mission/relief/development agencies of the churches involved. Global hunger is on the rise due to conflict, a changing climate and now COVID-19 which makes this work even more important. Our community is incredibly generous in giving both time and resources for this cause.

Wesley Mimico United Church – Food Ministry
Phone: 416-546-5737, Email: office@wmuc.caWesley Mimico United Church Food Bank in action Unfortunately, in 2020 due the COVID-19 pandemic the Community Lunch and Food Bank at Martin Luther Church is suspended until further notice. UPDATE 2024: “Wesley Mimico United Church (https://www.wmuc.ca/) food bank serves people in our local community, who are isolated by poverty, illness and cultural differences. Most are refugees or people on ODSP or Ontario Works or Pensions. Some work in precarious jobs at low wages. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic we adapted our Food Bank program from in person pick up at the church to delivery to people’s homes on a weekly basis (monthly for each family). We deliver a variety of basic foods bread (from a local bakery), pasta, canned meat and fish, breakfast cereals, canned vegetables, beans and soups, pasta sauce and tomatoes, jam & peanut butter, juice, powdered milk, sugar, rice, tea coffee, laundry detergent, soap, toothpaste and toilet paper. We also provide al $10 grocery gift card for each person. This way people can buy fresh food not handed out from the food bank. The effects of the Pandemic restrictions increased isolation for seniors and people living alone, and this has continued to this day. Thus, having a friendly call to see how you are doing and then having food delivered to your home has been extremely helpful for the people we deliver to.

Recently, there has been an influx of about 15 Ukrainian refugees and about 15 additional clients so that deliveries have increased from about 40 to over 70 per month during 2023. In addition a note of desperation has entered into some of our contacts as they face times with little or no food. The gratitude expressed by many clients is heart warming. Food Bank financial resources are challenged due to the increase in clients and the inflation induced increase in food costs. An increase in your donations to the WMUC Community Fund would help us meet this financial challenge and enable us to continue to provide help to the hungry in our midst.” – WMUC Happenings March 21, 2024 (e-newsletter)
