Food is Where

change begins.

Fighting hunger by building a secure food future for Cowichan.

Nestled in the heart of Vancouver Island, the Cowichan Region is home to rich farmland, but like many rural areas in Canada, faces real challenges when it comes to a reliable local food ecosystem. Since 2004, Cowichan Green Community has worked to strengthen food security and environmental sustainability in the Cowichan Region. 

Through innovative programs and hands-on services, CGC empowers community members to reconnect with their food systems. By fostering partnerships with local food producers, boosting both urban and rural food production, and actively inviting community members to participate in sustainable food initiatives, CGC is helping build a healthier, more resilient Cowichan food system.

From The Ground Up

Food is a bridge to healthier communities.

Food connects us to the land that sustains us and to the people who nurture it. CGC works across the Cowichan Region to turn that connection into action: increasing access to fresh food, reducing food waste, inspiring youth, supporting local farmers, and holding spaces where everyone is a steward of the land, building long-term food security for everyone in the Cowichan Region.
