SCFH fosters collaboration to support the availability of and access to nutritious, sustainable food in a culturally appropriate and equitable manner through education, policy development, and priority food security projects for communities in Strathcona The Strathcona Community Food Hub fosters collaboration to support availability of and access to nutritious, sustainable food in a culturally appropriate and equitable manner through coordination of education, policy development, and priority food security projects for all communities including vulnerable people within the Strathcona Region. The Hub defines food security as everyone has equitable access to food that is affordable, culturally preferable, nutritious and safe; everyone has the agency to participate in, and to influence food systems; and food systems are resilient, ecologically sustainable, socially just, and honour Indigenous food sovereignty as a priority. Food sovereignty is defined as the right of peoples to healthy and culturally appropriate food produced through ecologically sound and sustainable methods, and their right to define their own food and agriculture systems. We respectfully acknowledge we work within the traditional unceded territory of the LigΚ·iΕ‚dax̌ʷ people. We also recognize that we work within the traditional, treaty and unceded territories of the Ehattesaht /Chinehkint, Homalco, Ka:'yu:'k't'h'/Che: k'tles7et'h’, Klahoose, K’ómoks, Kwiakah, Mowachaht/Muchalaht, Nuchatlaht, Tla’amin, Tlowitsis, We Wai Kai and Wei Wai K*m First Nations.

πŸ‘‰πŸ½ 6.7/100 πŸ‘ˆπŸ½ We want to draw attention to our food self-reliance here in the Strathcona Region. What does food self-reliance mean? Simply put, it is the ability for us to feed ourselves from the food available in our region. According to a recent report from Kwantlen Polytechnic University, w information shared thanks to the LUSH Valley Food Action Society, the Strathcona Regional District's score is 6.7/100.

What are your favourite foods? 🫡🏽 The colder months are the perfect time to plan what you want to grow for the following warm season. Here at the Strathcona Community Food Hub, we have been hosting Gardening 101 Workshops in various communities within the Strathcona Region over the past two years. One question we ask attendees are their favourite foods.

Thank you to Mowachaht Muchalaht First Nation, the Campbell River Food Bank, and the Gold River Community Services and Gold River Community Garden for welcoming us into your homes
