**PROGRAM AREA: The SEED**

**EMPLOYMENT STATUS: Regular Ongoing**

**The Guelph CHC’s vision**:a community without barriers to health and wellbeing

**The SEED’s vision**: Everyone in Guelph-Wellington has enough good food to be well.

**Brief Description**:
The SEED is a community food project of the Guelph Community Health Centre. About 16% of households in Guelph are food insecure (Guelph Wellbeing study, 2014). The SEED’s goal is to change that by offering programs and services that tackle the root causes of poverty. We are supported by hundreds of amazing community members and by many partner organizations.

At the SEED Markets, we sell food on a sliding scale. This means that you can pay anywhere between our low price and our retail price. Lowest price is 33% off retail. You choose what’s best for you, no questions asked. By paying the retail price you help to subsidize the cost of selling the food at a discount. We sell both local and imported fruits and vegetables, soup starters, dried goods, and our frozen meals and Makeover Muffins from the Upcycle Kitchen.

Our innovative model brings together people of all incomes for a common purpose - good food and social connection. As the **Market Lead**, you'll provide that direction connection between The SEED and our community.
