If the old saying that “you are what you eat” is true, it would just make sense to try to find the best quality food that you can for you and your family. The Organic Box has now grown beyond its role as Edmonton’s go-to home delivery source for organic food from the best local and international producers, to delivering the goodness to a growing list of Alberta communities. With support from SEF, The Organic Box expanded to a 17,000 square foot warehouse to better meet its own needs, as well as acting as an operational centre for food trucks, farmers’ market vendor storage and local small scale food producers.
After thirteen years in the Executive Director chair at SEF, it is time for me to move on.
Every day SEF works with entrepreneurs—non-profits, for-profits, cooperatives – determined to find a better way to do things, to create a sustainable economy leading to a more inclusive community that works for everybody.
