Canadian bananas? Grow-local movement thriving amid tariff threats
Many people across the country are worried about rising cost of food amid ongoing tariff threats. In response some Canadians have turned to growing their own food.

I'm blessed because there is a good sized community garden plot nearby. Unfortunately, it's been abandoned. I think it's time to revive the site because there's a REAL NEED for food in our area. I have friends who volunteer for the local food pantry, and there's a real need for locally-grown food -- even in a a rural area! It needs to get to the right folks in time. There's so much waste -- both land-wise and food-wise! That needs to change! #LocalActivism #GrowLocal #FoodBanks #NoWaste #Compost #Sustainability #CommunityGardens

We have a private company (Roots Allotments) bidding to set up private #allotments on council (public) land. They want to take what is ours and rent it back at many multiples of the cost.

If the council falls for this it could be the beginning of the end for affordable plots!

Roots allotments advert for private ‘couples plots’ with added text: Roots Couples Plot 72sqm £34.99 a month = £420 a year
Cost of same size on Council Allotment = £25.20 a year
Over 16 times the price.
