Local Food Sources

Here are some links to connect you to quality, local food sources.

CSA Farms:  CSA stands for ‘Community Supported Agriculture’, the best guarantee that the food you’re buying comes straight from the fields of a local family farm.  In exchange for your food dollar, you receive a share of fresh, in-season, organically-grown, and sustainably-produced vegetables each week throughout the harvesting season.  This supports local farming, and puts crisp, flavourful, nutritious food on your table.  For a list of CSA farms and pick-up locations, please visit:

• FarmFolk CityFolk (Vancouver)
