Frootogo in Your community...
We love our community and every year we try and give back as much as we can. In 2010, we were able to donate fresh produce to the following Good Sheppard, Food Bank, and Parkinson Super Walk. We also have donated bakery goods to Drummond house. These are just some of the ways we like to help out in our local community.
This past fall, we were proudly chosen by Foodland Ontario government to be the location used for their commercials. Additionally our family was asked to participate and act in some of the scenes. The commercials have been aired on CHCH11, CP24 and numerous other Ontario tv networks. You can view some of the commercials on the foodland website at FoodlandOntario
These bags are made in Canada and purchased locally. For more information click here.
