Farmers on 57th is a non-profit organization inspiring growers with urban agricultural greenscapes. Our vibrant community includes harvest shares, accessible community gardens as well as educational and therapeutic programs driven by volunteers and professionals.
We grow food, flowers, berries and fruit using ecological growing methods and distribute it to over 1000 people every growing season. We currently operate a 1 acre urban farm, accessible community gardens and a therapeutic gardening program on Vancouver Coastal Health land in Marpole as well as therapeutic gardens for families in Bobolink Park, South Vancouver.
