Join us for our 15th annual Lower Mainland Feast of Fields, Sunday September 13, 2009 from 1-5pm at the UBC Farm in Vancouver.
The UBC Farm is a 24 hectare learning and research farm located on the University of British Columbia’s campus in Vancouver, British Columbia. The farm is student-driven and integrated with the wider community. As the only working farmland within the city of Vancouver, the UBC farm is an urban agrarian gem, featuring a landscape of unique beauty. Students, faculty, staff and the local community have been working together to create a place where anyone can come to learn, live and value the connection between land, food and community. the ultimate goal of the farm is to retain and re-create existing farm and forest lands at the University of British Columbia into an internationally significant centre for sustainable agriculture, forestry, and food systems.
