WELCOME
Welcome to the FoodCycles Web site! We’re glad you could drop by! You probably wanted to learn more about what FoodCycles does!
FoodCycles is a city farm not for profit in Toronto that inspires people to raise worms, make nutritious, vibrant compost and grow food. The vision is to create a just and ecological urban food system that encourages all people to come together to grow, learn about, and celebrate food in Toronto.

The 2010 goals you can help make real:
TEACH: Reach and teach several hundred people about growing good, chemical free, fair food and soil
EARTH: Turn several tonnes of food waste into quality compost. This cuts down air pollution and weather changing gases.
FOOD: Expand the market garden to 42,000 square feet and start a small city CSA. Aim to raise fish and bees to diversify our farm products.

All you have to do is sign up at http://bit.ly/aPUEHy or http://bit.ly/92ninw, come by Tuesday 3:30-7 PM and pick up your super healthy, fresh off the field food.
And of course, you’ll have the chance to actually plant, pick, harvest and water the food you’ll be eating if you volunteer. Workshops and special events will also round out the fun!
