connecting private landowners with their neighbours to grow food together. We are a working to get more people growing more food, together.

We are gardeners, landowners, sustainability advocates, local food enthusiasts, and neighbours. We turn yards into gardens by connecting those who have garden-able land with those who want to grow food on it. The food is for you, the landowners and the gardeners. We're here to support you in changing the way our cities look and eat.

We wait with baited breath for these kinds of stories! Big shoutout to immigrants who are bringing sensibility to New York 😁 Land sharing (including private land, like with Rhubarb) is the way to get the best of all worlds.

The city’s expanding network of 553 community gardens is a refuge for immigrants and others in the summer, and a source of fresh fruits and vegetables.

The local food movement in Calgary is picking up speed and getting mainstream support! This is what our city likes to see. http://www.avenuecalgary.com/Restaurants-Food/The-Rise-of-Sustainable-and-Connected-Eating-in-Calgary/

Over the past decade, the idea of sustainable eating — broadly speaking, food that has a lower environmental impact — has moved from being an activist ideal to a mainstream undertaking
