The Wood Buffalo Food Bank is officially moving into their new downtown location.
The non-profit had been operating out of a temporary site ever since their building was flooded and extremely damaged during last year’s flood.
Back in November, they purchased a spot on King Street and eventually started their move on Monday.
Executive Director Dan Edwards tells Mix News this new building will give them something they didn’t have before – space.
“We used every nook and cranny, we had a couple Harry Potter offices hiding under staircases…. this new space, significantly larger – I don’t need extra space to hold things.”
