Programs

Working together to ensure everyone in the Edmonton region participates and benefits from an equitable and ecologically sound food system; we raise awareness through education and initiate programs and projects that result in communities engaged in healthy food and a healthy planet.

 
City Farm

City Farm

...is a unique venue where children, youth and adults can discover and learn about where their food comes from and how it is produced; growing food, caring for animals and understanding the importance of the natural world at a not-so-traditional farm within the city.
Community Gardens

Community Gardens

...if you are looking to get involved in community gardens or start one in your neighbourhood, we are here to help. We are the resource network, helping communities start gardens or linking individuals with existing community gardens throughout the city.
Little Green Thumbs

Little Green Thumbs

...imagine indoor gardens in classrooms where children work together to grow vegetables; learning responsibility and cooperation and learning the connections between the seeds they plant and the salad they get to eat!

New Community Garden Facilitator

Many of you may know that Erin Wall, a passionate advocate for community gardens and our Facilitator for most of 2011 and the early part of 2012 is moving on to other challenges. After a lengthy search, we have found a wonderful replacement in Katharine Laurie who officially begins her role later this month. Katharine has traveled around the world and has spent countless hours working and volunteering in community development. She is an animal lover and in-training gardening enthusiast who is looking forward to engaging communities and getting to know the many diverse Edmonton neighbourhoods that support the program.
