Volunteers are the heart and soul of The SEED
Our movement is powered by hundreds of amazing volunteers. Every day you can find us in the kitchen, in the warehouse, driving deliveries, on the phone with our customers, and helping to grow food for our programs. See below for current opportunities!
Souper Heroes Packing and Events Volunteers
Souper Heroes is The SEED’s annual volunteer-lead fundraiser! Help pack soup pouches, represent The SEED at events, buy soup for friends, family, colleagues. Learn more about the origins of the initiative here. Reach out by email to theseed@guelphchc.ca to get involved!
The SEED Markets are a weekly affordable fresh food market, aimed at increasing the accessibility (both physical and financial) of good food for everyone in Guelph.
Our items are priced on a sliding scale, you pay whatever feels right for you within the range listed. Everyone is always welcome! Paying the higher end of the scale subsidizes the cost for others in our community who benefit from the lower end of the scale. By shopping at the market, you are directly contributing to an equity-based food system.
Reach out to Market Coordinator Nicole Leighton at nileighton@guelphchc.ca to get involved!
Each neighborhood in Guelph is unique, and the organizations that serve these neighborhoods know them the best. We partner with and deliver to the Emergency Food Providers of Guelph to help maximize the good food they can offer and reinforce the good work being done already.
We also distribute to schools in Guelph and Wellington County, delivering food for healthy lunch/snack programs for elementary school children. We offer a high-quality service that decreases the amount of time spent shopping, decreases the cost of fruits and veggies, and increases the amount and quality of food in our community.
