Sharing Backyards - Victoria
One of the biggest barriers to growing food in the city is access to land - despite the fact that many yards, lawns, and backyards have plenty of room to spare. Sharing Backyards links people with unused yard space with those looking for a place to grow food. Grow your own veggies, herbs, flowers, and fruit.

The “Grow your Own Dinner Project” is a community gardening mentorship program sponsored jointly by Vancouver Coastal Health and the One Straw Society. Our goal is to create a garden mentorship program that will help put more local food on the tables of families in our community. There is nothing quite as satisfying as eating the healthy, organic food you have grown yourself. Knowledgeable and experienced organic gardeners will assist new gardeners to start their own backyard endeavors. No plot is too small: you can grow your dinner even if you only have a patio!
