“The Oromocto Food Bank has been an important part of our community since the early eighties. Over the past 30 years their contribution has been invaluable to the citizens of the Town of Oromocto and outlying areas who have found themselves in dire circumstances. We are delighted to hear that they are building a Central Regional Warehouse Food Hub.”MAYOR ROBERT POWELL – TOWN OF OROMOCTO
