Interested in ordering a Food Box? Food Box orders can be placed the first Wednesday of the month between 11am – 4pm at the Sunset Country Metis Hall, 714 Armit Avenue.

I want to represent an upbeat and caring place to come to. My favourite thing is the company uses our traditional ways like smudging, putting our tobacco down outside by our sacred tree, or inside our grandfather rock by the entrance door.
