What We Do

We are a non-profit, charitable organization that works with educators to bring local agriculture to BC's students. Together with farmers, teachers, and agriculture specialists, we teach students about the story of our food in British Columbia.

Harvest Bin Project: Design and Build a Better Farming Tool

This resource will enable students to design and build a better farming tool for use in the Harvest Bins that solves or improves upon a challenge they experienced during the farming process (planting, caring for the plants, or harvesting). Students will have to research the history of their tool, create a template for the design and outline how it will work and improve their farming experience.
