MONCTON AND SOUTHEASTERN NEW BRUNSWICK
From trees to gardens: Horizon supports community food initiatives Two projects in southeastern New Brunswick are benefiting from Horizon’s Community Health Grants.
In Fort Folly First Nation (Amlamgog), a $2,500 grant will support the “Fruit Trees for a Fruitful Life” project, planting trees to improve access to fresh fruit while promoting physical activity and land-based learning for seniors, adults, and youth.
The Cocagne Sustainable Development Group will use a $2,500 grant for a food security project, which aims to grow and store about 5,000 pounds of fresh, pesticide-free vegetables at the Cocagne Community Garden for distribution to the Shediac Food Bank and a local senior meal program.
