Soowahlie First Nation Enhanced Garden Plan

Soowahlie First Nation Enhanced Garden Plan


(2024)

Upland was contracted by Soowahlie First Nation to develop an enhanced community garden plan. Soowahlie First Nation is located south of Chilliwack BC. The garden would help to continue to address community food security and support local entrepreneurs wishing to use the garden as a basis for developing value-added products, to be processed in a community kitchen and sold directly to customers. The enhanced community garden would also help the community to achieve the objectives of increasing access to locally grown foods, build education around health, and build resilience against rising costs of foods and climate change.
