The UrbanFarm Permaculture Project
The URBANFARM Permaculture Project was started in 2013 as an evolving demonstration garden designed to showcase permaculture & food production at work in a northern urban setting and to get people excited about growing an incredible abundance of nutrient dense food in ways that are practical, sustainable AND beautiful.
The Project has been built on the foundation of an existing organically-managed mature garden and landscape in the Calgary community of Palliser, free from pesticide, herbicide and fertilizer use for the last 23 years.
They believe "taking positive, practical steps towards providing for some of your own needs, while respecting and regenerating the natural environment, will give you the tools and resources you need to gain more security, greater peace of mind, and the comfort of knowing you have the ability to build resiliency in an ever-changing world".
