Grow Food. Grow People. Grow Calgary.
As a non-profit organization, we are always looking to partner with sponsors and volunteers to further our vision of food security. Sponsoring or volunteering with Grow Calgary will help support Calgarians who lack access to fresh, healthy food.
Healthy Food
We grow our non-GMO food naturally, without the use of pesticides or other chemicals and contaminants. Our ‘urban-ag’ farming practice is environmentally responsible and is centered around the reuse and recycle ethos.
Volunteer Run
Grow Calgary is run entirely by the hard-work of dedicated and passionate volunteers who deeply care about their communities and the access to food –for all.
Article 25
Grow Calgary is Alberta’s first Article 25 Organization. Article 25 of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights speaks to the fundamental rights that are access to food and shelter. We have asserted ourselves as defenders of this declaration and these rights and ask on others to do the same and to help us in our fight.
Initiatives
Grow Calgary initiatives include: Article 25 Microhomes for the rights to food and shelter, MOW2GROW for changes in urban land-use to support sustainable farming, and a Small-Scale Agricultural Farm Management Certificate Program to build the capacity of urban-ag techniques locally.
Organic Food
We grow our non-GMO food organically, without the use of pesticides or other chemicals and contaminants. Our ‘urban-ag’ farming practice is environmentally responsible and is centered around the reuse and recycle ethos.
