Right to Food Headquarters and Community Space

Toronto

2025

340 Gerrard St is a community food centre and the national headquarters for Right to Food (previously Community Food Centres Canada). A brick and beam building of around 14,000 sf, will be converted into three floors of community space and office space for Right to Food staff.

340 Gerrard will support the diverse Regent Park, St. James Town, and Moss Park communities, where residents face disproportionate barriers to health and well-being. It will serve as a local resource for newcomer families, seniors, children, as well as people experiencing homelessness.

On any given day, hundreds of community members will find their way to 340 Gerrard to visit the affordable produce market, bake a pizza in the wood-fired oven, attend a senior's nutrition program or join a social justice club.

Where once there was a rundown parking lot, there will be a thriving discovery garden. A neglected turn-of-the-century mattress factory will be converted into an essential resource for healthy food, belonging, and advocacy.

340 Gerrard is owned and operated by Right to Food. For more information, please see:
