The Farmlands Trust (Greater Victoria) Society 

Our vision…

To achieve and facilitate food sovereignty in Greater Victoria where the communities we serve define their own food and agriculture systems, producing healthy and culturally appropriate food using ecologically sound, regenerative and sustainable methods.

What we do…

  • Harvest and donate fresh produce

    • We grow to meet the needs of our community

  • Showcase biodiversity and regenerative farming

    • We grow using agro-ecological best practices

  • Create opportunities for community service, education and interaction

    • We grow with the help of volunteers committed to serving the community, learning about growing food, and enjoying the farm
