Another reason for all that seemingly empty space, having visited there once a year for the past five or six years, is that is provides a buffer for the pig barn in the centre. Betcha most of the people around the farm aren’t even aware of it. NRCB regulations require a setback between an intensive livestock operation and houses and I’m just guessing on how many complaints there would be if manure from the barn were spread on the field.

Are there any individuals or groups out their able to assist me and a coalition called pesticide free Edmonton? We are looking for letters to send to community services subcommittee. We want a short simple letter preferably on letterhead stating you or your group is concerned re pesticides.

We have templates and addresses. This would be much appreciated as this is going to city hall feb 6

The garden bits I saw look great. Is it supposed to have sound? I can’t find a place to turn up the volume but even with my volume set to full I had a silent video. I’m dying to know what that fellow was saying.

It was great to have you come and visit us! The Edmonton Food Bank loves fresh fruit and vegetables, just make sure to call ahead so they can be prepared for your harvest!

I thank you for the very useful information. I have been trying to do pretty much the same at my house. My house sits on a corner lot and I have always thought it is such as waste of land growing grass when it could be perfectly fine growing food for my family. I have remove most of my grass and are slowly converting them into veg & fruit garden. It’s been a long process since I am doing it on my own and learning along the way…none of my neighbour seem interested in a co-operative style urban farming. I already have lots of surplus lettuce this year and I can see that I will have enough potatoes to feed a few small families! Your article give me a good idea to donate the surplus to Edmonton Food Bank. I didn’t know that they accept vegetables.
