The @weareallkinCA pay-what-you-want markets is a timely solution to a rising challenge to food security in #yyc, with a new report from @VibrantCalgary showing Food Bank usage was up 44% in 2021.
With the goal to increase food access a new pop up food market is making it easier for Calgarians to get the food they need. @CityTara reports.
