Do you want to support local food production? Are you interested in learning how to grow your own food? Do you think local food is the answer to most of the world�s problems?

Then come celebrate the start of another growing season at your local community gardens at the Rhubarb Festival!

The Nanaimo Community Gardens Society (NCGS) recognizes that a sustainable food system is the foundation of a healthy community. Support Nanaimo Community Gardens as they �work with people to grow more food in the region because growing food locally is vital to a healthy community and environment. Our programs and services get individuals and families active in growing, sharing, buying and eating local foods.�

Lee Sanmiya, NCGS administrator adds, �We are growing in our community because we envision our community abundant in food, and our culture and economy respectful of our dependence on the earth�s resources for survival.�
