The Lucknow Community Christian Reformed Church began in 1952, and will be celebrating 70 years next year.
The church started as some 12 or 13 families of Dutch descent coming to Canada. They began working on farms, didn’t know the language that well and needed a community and their faith was a big part of that. The first services would have been held in the family homes, until they purchased their first building in 1961.

“It’s really a great deal,” says Tim Leferink, pastor of Lucknow Community Christian Reformed Church. “The fruits and vegetables are high quality and we get such a great variety too. The response to this program has just taken off in the last year, because many people are looking for a local source of produce.”
