We have created an urban farm in the heart of Vancouver by piecing together a collection of backyard gardens around the Kitsilano neighbourhood. The people who own these gardens have provided us with the space to grow produce that we can take to market, or share with the community through our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program.

With our CSA program, we grow for a set number of harvest shareholders who join us at the beginning of the year. These households and families then share in the bounty of the harvest throughout the growing season. This provides financial support for the farmers early in the spring when it is most needed. In return, we share the fruits of an abundant and diverse harvest. In this way, the farm and families form a network of mutual support.

You can find more information about Kitsilano Farms and urban farming throughout our website. And if you are interested in offering gardening space on your property, please contact us.

Keep your eyes open for the next urban farm sprouting up in your neighbourhood —or start your own. The urban farming trend is growing!
