Acadia: A Good Food Box Depot!
Thanks to community support for the Good Food Box Program, individuals and families in Acadia can now purchase boxes of fresh fruits and vegetables at an affordable price–approximately $1 per pound of produce–and have those boxes delivered to the ARC for pick up.
All boxes contain the maximum amount of produce to ensure clients get the most value for the price. Clients can choose from three different box sizes (see below), and the program is available to everyone regardless of income level.
Box Size Price Weight
Small $25 15 to 20lbs* of fruits and vegetables
Medium $30 25 to 30lbs* of fruits and vegetables
Large $35 35 to 40lbs* of fruits and vegetables
*Please note that weights are approximate.
If you are interested in purchasing a Good Food Box for pick up at the ARC, please complete a request form at www.acadia.community/goodfoodbox or email Helen Tubrett directly at [email protected]. Payment by e-transfer or cash is required at the time of ordering.
