Loaves 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.

Delivery and shopping is done in a socially distanced manner.“ Prior to the pandemic, every Saturday, Wesley Mimico United Church https://www.wmuc.ca/ offered food ministry in the Martin Luther Church basement, welcoming people of all ages, backgrounds and economic circumstances.
