Community Garden
To offset the ever-increasing high cost of groceries in Yellowknife and to provide high-quality healthy food, NSMA is building a community garden in 2023 at 32 Melville Drive where the harvest of fresh fruit and vegetables will go directly to its local members. This will also provide an opportunity for members to become a stronger community by increasing healthy connections with each other.
