The Shelbourne Community Kitchen is a community resource for individuals and families living on a low income, who have difficulty accessing sufficient nutritious food on a consistent basis—in other words, they are experiencing food insecurity. We assist by providing small-group cooking, pantry, and gardening programs, which encourage community building, while participants acquire food skills and learn to access nutritious food affordably.

Indigenous land acknowledgment

We acknowledge with respect and gratitude that we live and work on the traditional unceded Coast Salish Territories, specifically of the Lekwungen and W_SÁNEC peoples. We strive to honour the First Peoples of this land by ensuring that our work is respectful and inclusive. In good spirit, we hope to continue to build strong relationships and community resilience together, as Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.
