"Thank you for building a better community through your support of the Better Food Co. Every meal purchased or gifted resulted in those Guelphites who are in need having access to nutritious, and delicious food."
Our meals are prepared using produce grown on our farm and other local farms as much as possible. We then partner with local restaurants and chefs to create our 100% Made in Guelph meals.
Through the Ontario Trillium Foundation, Hope House has access to an 8.4 acre plot of land in Guelph where we grow over 10,000 pounds of farm-fresh produce every year. All profits from our meals are invested into our community food work.
In 2023 alone, we shared over $667,000 of groceries through our community food market and with other food security agencies in Guelph. By purchasing a meal, you help make our Better Food System possible.
Chef Matthew brings years of fine dining experience to the table, having worked in some of Ontario’s top kitchens: Scaramouche, the Four Seasons, Breadalbane Inn, Oliver & Bonacini, Borealis, Langdon Hall, and Elora Mill. Now at Crieff Hills, he collaborates directly with the farm team to choose seasonal vegetables, incorporate foraged ingredients, and design daily menus featuring their own maple syrup, honey, meat, and eggs. He also leads a growing staff, crafts small-batch preserves, and hosts a seasonal on-farm dinner series.
Whether he’s cooking for a retreat group, developing a new dish, or cheering on the Buffalo Bills, Chef Matthew is always looking for ways to bring people together around good food.
For the cost of the takeout meal, you can purchase a meal today that supports The Better Food Company and our community work.
