September 1, 2023 —
Three members of the Brokenhead Ojibway Nation are stocking the local grocery store and the food bank with fresh vegetables from what used to be a field of weeds in the community.
“We’re just trying to provide an alternative, healthier options for our community with all the rising prices nowadays,” said Hayden Gilmour, a member of the community and an agricultural student at the University of Manitoba.
