Farmland


Although Cityhall's plan is to have 2,010 food plots for Vancouver by the year 2010 is impressive, the question is what will be the plan there after?. Many ideas come to mind about forcing new developments to contain food plots on the roofs or next to the development or have developers pay a fee to create new agriculture land. Vancouver is good for going to local farmers markets and getting local stuff www.eatlocal.org . Vancouver needs to do its fare share of having agriculture land even if we are a metropolitan city we need to grow our own food. Its unfair to keep the burden on Richmond, Surrey, Langley etc..because its for the benefit of the whole region.
