One of the food trailers at the Skibbereen market on the day I visited in 2019 was “Little Green Shoot”. They’re on Facebook, but haven’t updated since 2020 so they may not be operating any more. A lot has happened since then.

The #VictoriaBC Urban Food Table #UFT is a #volunteer #AdvisoryCommittee dedicated to providing informed support to Victoria City Council in matters related to #FoodSecurity policy & decision making. We meet the second Wednesday of each month. Our members are #FoodSystems & #sustainability professionals and include urban and rural farmers , local businesses, educators, community association and garden representatives, health workers, dietitians & environmental stewardship not-for-profit staff. We view local #FoodProduction as fundamental to a healthy & sustainable food system, and share the common goal of a #FoodSecure region.
Our strategic goals focus on urban farming, community and home gardening, food equity, soil restoration, land and biodiversity stewardship, waste-reduction and composting, pollinator support, First Nations Reconciliation, and celebrating local food.
The Urban Food Table meets in a hybrid/online format on the second Wednesday of every month from 4:30pm - 6pm. If you are interested in joining the UFT, or to learn more - email at [email protected] or through the form below.

#Free #pears & #apples in Gorge Waterway Park. Please only pick what you can eat while walking or enjoying rest time, at the park. That way, there's enough for more folks in the community to also enjoy fresh Summer fruits 😊

Julia is our midterm executive director & she's been doing a fantastic job.
Meet Julia:
Julia McDougall
Julia (she/her) is passionate about environmentalism and community engagement. Raised in Kamloops, British Columbia on Tk'emlups te Secwepemc territory, Julia spent her childhood hiking with dogs, canoeing through local lakes and rivers, and photographing the wildlife around her. With a camera and backpack in hand, Julia has travelled to six of the world's seven continents to learn as much as she can about different cultures and their connections to nature. Julia completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Guelph in Animal Biology and later pursued a Master's degree in Conservation Research at Oxford Brookes University. She has conducted research on mountain gorillas in Uganda and black bears in Canada, which has shown her the importance of community dedication to local conservation issues. The links between positive environmental health and public engagement are clear, and have paved the way to her connection with Lifecycles Project Society. On her days off, you can often find Julia surfing in Tofino, hiking with her pup, or kayaking around the coast of Vancouver Island.

Ella is a super rad person ❤️
Meet, Ella Swan.
Ella (they/them) is enthusiastic about increasing food security and reducing food waste. Raised to value local food systems, they have been working and volunteering for organizations related to sustainable agriculture and ecosystem health since their early teens. Their educational background is in Gender Studies, Environmental Studies and Restoration of Natural Systems. For Ella, the links between healthy food, healthy people and healthy ecosystems are clear. With practical experience in environmental restoration, farming and volunteer management, they are looking forward to supporting the administrative side of the Fruit Tree Project as well as joining in on fruit picks when opportunities arise. Ella is also passionate about art, and has a textile art practice. This is a way to (literally) weave together arts and environmentalism with their focus on reused materials, sheep to yarn explorations and natural dying. Ella is a settler of Scottish and English descent, and has been an uninvited guest on W̱SÁNEĆ and lək̓ʷəŋən territories for the past 9 years. They were born and raised on the territories of the Ktunaxa and Secwépemc peoples.
