Check out where food is growing around the qathet region, and some of the people behind it.

Home Grown, published by qathet Living, explores the world of food and agriculture in the qathet region. In addition to a map listing most of the food growers in our region, this issue looks at how regenerative agriculture allows qathet farmers to grow more food in a more natural and sustainable way with fewer additives. We also look at the new plans for the Salish Sea Spirits distillery, companion planting, and how tapping into traditional knowledge is helping Tla’amin Nation ensure food for the future. Plus a website for swapping garden produce, challenges with abattoirs, a food “un-conference”, the two-block diet, what farmers should consider to FireSmart their properties, and much more.
