Welcome to the non-profit GULF ISLANDS FOOD CO-OP of B.C., Canada!
We focus on the unique FOOD PRODUCERS of the Southern Gulf Islands of Pender, Mayne, Saturna and Galiano – within the traditional territories of the Coast Salish First Nations. A dynamic inter-island process that started in 2017 has led to three collaborative initiatives:
1. Gulf Islands FOOD CO-OP SERVICES (here): facilitating inter-island cooperation in order to create new resources and practical supports, for our amazing Southern Gulf Islands food producers, valued eaters, and local food sustainability!
This includes honouring Indigenous producers, and also following up on key priorities from the Southern Gulf Islands Food & Agriculture Strategy
2. Gulf Islands FOOD REGISTRY: promoting food producers of all sizes and types, and island food groups
3. Food Co-op EDUCATION: for workshops, educational videos, and references, to support local food resilience in the beautiful Southern Gulf Islands of British Columbia.
