Joanne has been busy turning generously donated produce into delicious preserves, and they now have a section of their own in the Bistro!

From dill carrots and zucchini relish to apple butter and apple rhubarb chutney, there’s something to brighten your plate or give as a thoughtful little gift.

Every jar helps support local food security. Your purchase brings something delicious home while helping care for neighbours in our community.
