Celebrating 2025 with the Wellness Program

As 2025 comes to a close, we celebrate the journey of the Wellness Program at the Cambridge Food Bank, supported by Health Promoter Chai through the Wellness Hub, Rise & Shine, and Plant Power Mondays.

Participants explored 14 different beans, learning through hands-on experiences,soaking, simmering, blending, and baking. Each step built confidence, creativity, and connection.

Highlights from the Wellness Hub

Participants tried new and familiar plant powered meals, used recipes inspired by Canada’s Food Guide, explored budget friendly options with Ontario Beans, and built practical cooking skills with guidance from Chai.

Why It Matters

The Wellness Program was about participation, curiosity, and growth. Each question asked, recipe tried, and shared success created a welcoming space where healthy eating became accessible and empowering.

Thank you to all participants and especially Chai for making 2025 a year of learning, connection, and nourishment.
