The Edible Garden Project

Everyone deserves to  fall in love with fresh produce

The Edible Garden Project is Growing, Sharing and Teaching about Fresh Local Food
in North and West Vancouver

The Edible Garden Project is located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm (Musqueam), sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil Waututh), and sḵwx̱ wú7mesh (Squamish) peoples. The Edible Garden Project recognizes that our means of food production is mainly based on a system brought in by white settlers to serve that same population while also being rooted in a systematic process of dispossession. Agricultural policies have long been used as instruments for assimilation and colonization – ignoring both Indigenous knowledge of the land and their right and autonomy over it – and our farm is not excused from this. In our mission to create a community where access to growing and sharing fresh, healthy food is possible for all people, we hope to create a healthier ecosystem and landscape while contributing to a broader system where Indigenous food sovereignty is prioritized and supported.

What people are saying

The staff are great and I love supporting an urban farm project

— Market Vendor

I feel like almost everything I did on the farm was a highlight. Even biking up and seeing people bending over and working the rows before I knew what I’d be doing for the day just gave me this delicious sense of anticipation. I loved working with people who were so eager to learn and work with the earth, loved how excited people were at the vegetables we loaded into their baskets at market, loved looking at the freshly weeded carrot patch, loved the mixed smell of rain and garlic

I love that visitors are curious and ask questions. Also other vendors were very friendly and I appreciated that I could buy vegetables as well!
