In April, our Province experienced the 2nd wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Stay-at-home orders were issued as variants continued to spread. As an essential food processor, the SWO. Gleaners made the decision to stay open, but with even greater safety protocols. This required that we reduced the number of volunteers per shift to ensure physical distancing. Many dedicated volunteers have helped to continue our impotent work. We feel fortunate that our facility has continued to stay COVID-free. Thank you, volunteers! […]

General Manager, Joel Epp and volunteers were interviewed by CTV and talked about the importance of reopening and the work that they do at the WO Gleaners. View the News Clip HERE

In February, we had the misfortune of having to deal with a break and entry at our facility. Luckily, there was no major damage beyond a couple of broken windows and a big mess to clean up. No food was taken or destroyed. Approximately $5000. in theft and damages overall. We were saddened by this incident and hope the person or persons responsible get the help they need to make better decisions.
