It started with people caring for people. It started in Aldershot. A few small church-based groups in 1991 met, at what is now the Enterprise Rent-A-Car at King Road and Plains Road East, to discuss the growing issues of food insecurity in Burlington. I’m sure that the problem they were facing wasn’t a new one and that they weren’t the first people in Burlington to try to collectively help feed their neighbours.
