About Us
FarmWonders is an innovative, educational and fun student-run community education initiative committed to promoting environmental awareness through science-based farm learning. Hosted by the Centre for Sustainable Food Systems at UBC Farm, we aim to offer a unique experience that allows children to explore the wonders of science at the farm and discover the mysteries of the food that they eat.
Three branches of education:
- School Programs
- Landed Learning
- Summer Camps
The Center for Sustainable Food Systems at UBC Farm
The Centre for Sustainable Food Systems at UBC Farm is a 24 hectare teaching, research, and community farm located on the University of British Columbia's Campus in Vancouver, Canada. As the only working farmland within the city of Vancouver, the UBC Farm is an urban agrarian gem, featuring a landscape of unique beauty.
The Centre is a student-driven initiative where students, faculty, staff, and the local community have been working together to create a place where anyone can come to learn, live and value the connection between land, food and community. The ultimate goal of the farm is to retain and re-create existing farm and forest lands at the University of British Columbia into an internationally significant centre for sustainable agriculture, forestry and food systems.
