squamish valley agriculture plan

In February 2019, the Squamish Food Policy Council in partnership with the District of Squamish and Squamish-Lillooet Regional District began the development of an Agricultural Plan for the Squamish Valley. The Squamish Valley Agricultural Plan is a strategic planning document, the result of a community planning initiative led by District of Squamish (DoS) and Squamish-Lillooet Regional District (SLRD) in collaboration with the Squamish Food Policy Council, Upland Agricultural Consulting, and in close consultation with BC Ministry of Agriculture. This project was financially supported by the Investment Agriculture Foundation of Canada. The Squamish Valley Agricultural Plan (SVAP) provides a coordinated approach to support agriculture and food systems in the Squamish Valley over the next 10 years. The SVAP provides a clear vision and roadmap of actions to maximize the agricultural and food sector potential of the Squamish Valley. The plan considers how rural, urban, and residential agriculture can play a role in the production of food, enhancing awareness of local food, and fostering community connections for a sustainable food system.
