Our meals are prepared using produce grown on our farm and other local farms as much as possible.
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.
From April 2024 - March 2025, we shared over $1 million worth 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 Brian Baker is a truly dedicated chef who cares deeply about his community. He brings exceptional skill and a real passion for making great food.
In 2025, Chef Brian played a key role in helping Hope House share 8,665 free meals through our Food Market, meals that nourished so many people in our community. Now, he’s bringing that same heart and talent to your table.
We can’t wait for you to try this month’s feature!

Starting February 2026, we’re excited to launch a new monthly subscription option! This will replace our seasonal bundles, making it easier than ever to enjoy Better Food Co meals.
With this new model, you don’t have to remember to order each month. Sign up once, and your meals are automatically scheduled for you. Easily edit or customize your subscription through the 'Manage Subscription' page after you've signed up.
Unlike the seasonal bundles, where you automatically received 2 meals per order, the monthly subscription lets you choose exactly how many meals you want each month. And since it’s automatic, you never have to worry about remembering to place your order.
The subscription will start immediately after you sign up. You will receive an email confirming your subscription has been created.
You’ll be charged once a month. You will receive an upcoming order email 24 hours before you are charged.
With the subscription, you still receive a discounted meal price. While regular meals are $14.50 each, subscription meals are $13.50 per meal.
At the beginning of each month, we launch that month’s meal on our website and through email. That’s when you’ll see the meal included in your subscription.
Love the sound of that month's meal? Log onto your subscription page and increase the amount of meals you want for that month! Easy peasy.
Yes! Visit the 'Manage Subscription' page to cancel, pause, or skip months. You can also adjust the amount of meals you'd like to order for a particular month through this page.

Absolutely! You can cancel or pause anytime by visiting the 'Manage Subscription' page.
Nope! Pickup remains the same: the last full week of the month on the Thursday, at First Baptist Church Guelph, 12–6 PM.
Your meals will be frozen and can still be picked up at Hope House the following week.
