A community centre built around good food

The Natoaganeg Community Food Centre (CFC) is a Mi’kmaq-led space in New Brunswick where people come together around good food. Rooted in the belief that everyone deserves access to healthy, high-quality food, the CFC offers a welcoming place to grow, cook, share, and learn. Through hands-on programs, community members build skills, connect with one another, and gain confidence in making healthy choices - all while fostering a strong sense of belonging.
