Loutet Farm, a sustainable social enterprise that facilitates social, environmental, economic and educational benefits for the community is the first step in building a plant to plate local food system on the North Shore. Employing underutilized public parkland provided by the City of North Vancouver, Loutet Farm will operate as an economically viable urban farm within a residential area. Funds generated through the sale of the produce will be directed back into the operations of the farm while creating valuable green-collar jobs for north shore residents. In addition, the farm will offer a range of courses centered on sustainable food production for both adults and children and will engage the local community in farm activities. Sustainably grown produce is available for purchase direct from the farm: Wednesdays 4-6pm (June-October) Saturdays 10am-noon (May-November)
