Written by Terra Murphy Kaethler in 2006, this report provides an overview of the benefits of urban agriculture and explores best practices of urban agriculture initiatives in four North American cities which are presented as case studies. The report then shifts to focus on what is happening in Vancouver, documenting existing urban agriculture activities and supportive policies that are in place, identifying suitable new sites through the development of a public land inventory and exploring other potential opportunities to expand urban agriculture initiatives in Vancouver. This report aims to inform planners, city officials and citizens
about the potential of urban agriculture and recommends actions to expand and improve opportunities for urban agriculture in Vancouver.
