Vancouver promotes sustainable food through a multifaceted strategy that emphasizes local production, equitable access, and waste reduction. The Vancouver Food Strategy, adopted in 2013, outlines over 70 actions to build a just and sustainable food system. These include expanding community gardens, urban farms, and farmers markets, as well as supporting neighbourhood food networks that connect residents with fresh, local produce. The city also backs circular food economy initiatives, such as the Circular Food Innovation Lab, which partners with local businesses to eliminate food waste by rethinking how food is produced, consumed, and reused. Composting programs, food recovery efforts, and education campaigns further reinforce Vancouver’s commitment to reducing emissions and enhancing food security.
