The Trenton MFRC partners with the Community Development Council of Quinte (CDCQ) to bring you the Good Food Bag and Good Baby Box programs. This opportunity is available to everyone living in Hastings and Prince Edward County.

Good Food Bag

The Good Food Bag program offers fresh, nutritious food for an excellent price. Families can buy a large bag of vegetables for $10 and a small bag of fruit for $5. The contents of the bag remain similar every month but can vary slightly based on the supply that CDCQ has available to them.

You can purchase a Good Food Bag at the Trenton MFRC – Trenton Branch or online through the CDCQ website.

Your participation in the program will help keep costs low and ensure CDCQ can continue to offer this program in our community.

Good Baby Box

The Good Baby Box program helps families with infants and toddlers reduce food and other supply costs. Each box includes a package of baby wipes and 20 diapers. You can purchase one box for every week of the month! The cost of each box is $6.50. Formula is also available upon request.

You can purchase a Good Baby Box at your local Trenton MFRC Branch (Trenton, Batawa, and Belleville).
