What is a Food Hub?
In 2021, the Social Planning Council of Williams Lake and Area partnered with Unite Way British Columbia, the Williams Lake Food Policy Council and Cariboo Chilcotin Partners for Literacy, to design and deliver a brand new project of the region: the Central Cariboo Community Food Hub.
Our Vision
Families and our community have dignified, equitable and sufficient access to healthy, culturally-appropriate foods and our local food system is resilient, sustainable, and sovereign.
Our Mission
We will connect and support a network of partners, stakeholders and community members around this vision for food security through a combination of project work, collaboration, shared governance, and advocacy.
Our Values
Collaboration: overcoming the complexity of food insecurity by working together to meet shared goals and benefit mutually from shared resources.
Capacity: supporting partners with varying needs and levels of resources, to lift us all to success.
Action: launching initiatives that have real and measurable results within our food system.
Sustainability: supporting and growing our local food economy so that it is prosperous and regenerative.

What We Heard!
"There are no words on how much we appreciate and are thankful for the extra Farmer Market Vouchers for our program. With these extra vouchers we are now able to cut out our waitlist for our clients wanting/needing to be on this amazing program. Thank you so much. Your generosity makes life easier for our vulnerable families. "
