I want to thank the Ontario Produce Marketing Association for organizing a meeting and tour with Vince, Joe and Steve from TK Fresh in Etobicoke. Because of @ONTProduce I’ve learned more about how fresh fruits and vegetables get from farms to stores!

The Ontario Produce Marketing Association, with partner Numerator, has released consumer research findings from Q4 2023. 71% of Canadian consumers think that inflation will increase in the months ahead, a belief that impacts produce purchases. @ONTProduce thegrower.org/news/canadian-…

Boxes being distributed all across ONT containing fresh produce for a family of 4 for an entire week! An amazing event to be a part to ensure families in need are fed Thank you @BreakfastClubz @ONFoodTerminal 4 all of the amazing work being done! @tpsJohnson #christmasspirit
