With so many hungry and so many willing to help, Community Harvest Ontario is the perfect marriage of both. My name is Tony Curci (Urban Farmer) and I am the newest member of Regional Food Distribution Association and one of the new Field Managers of Community Harvest Ontario. It is my great pleasure to be a part of this exciting new project and to help the local farmers of my community to share their quality product with their neighbours in need. I am excitedly looking forward to all the events and projects that will help to develop this program and sustain it into the future.

Are you a proud parent with a new baby?
Will your baby be 2 - 4 months old in October?
You and your baby could be a Roots of Empathy family
Roots of Empathy is a program for children in kindergarten to grade 8. The program's aim is to increase empathy - the ability to understand another person's feelings. Children learn to care and respect each other and there is less bullying and aggression.
A Roots of Empathy family:
· A mother and/or father visits a classroom in a local school with a Roots of Empathy Instructor.
· The visits are about 30 minutes long, once a month from October until June.
· The program helps children to learn about a baby's needs and how babies develop and lets children observe the loving relationship between a parent and baby.
· Babies must be 2 to 4 months old in October.
