We invite you to explore Groundswell’s projects here online and come visit the gardens; whether it is green in the midst of winter or mile high tomatoes  during summer there is always something happening to feed your body and your spirit.  Bring a senior or a young person with you to support their mental and physical wellbeing.

Become a member, plant a seed, take a course, teach a gardening course, develop a project, turn our compost pile, volunteer your time, lend financial support and through your contributions you will create Food Sustainability for the Columbia Valley.

It is with great reverence that we acknowledge the land on which we grow our food is the ancestral land and unceded territory of the Ktunaxa Nation. This land is also shared with the Secwepemc People (including the Shuswap Band), the Métis, and other Indigenous communities.

We honour the generations who have cared for these lands since time immemorial, and we commit ourselves to carrying forward this tradition of respect and stewardship for the earth on which we live and grow.
