Hi, I have a good plot of land for gardening in my yard on George st near the market in f'ton. Any gardeners interested in planting veggies but dont have a yard I am willing to learn and share :)

We'd like to expand our plantings of fruit and nut trees and are willing to share and teach. We'll show you how to propagate rootstock, graft, and plant common fruits like apples, pears, cherries, plums and less common fruits like medlar, persimmon, pawpaw, goumi, and shipova. And nuts - hazel, northern pecan, heartnut, and black walnut. What you get out of the arrangement: knowledge and you get to keep the bounty from "your" trees. What do we get out of the arrangement: more trees planted. We use the holistic approach advanced by Michael Phillips - http://www.groworganicapples.com/ Here's our exact location on Google Map - http://goo.gl/x6iXU

Young and able bodied, apartment bound experienced gardener seeks established or somewhat neglected garden plot. I've lived and gardened in Calgary most of my life, so I've got a solid understanding of how to grow a successful garden using organic / biodynamic principles. I'm also a landscape architect by profession, so I'm no stranger to the world of plants. I live in the Beltline, and would prefer a plot of land nearby to reduce travel time. I'd be more than willing to share a portion of the harvest in exchange for your lovely piece of earth. The crops chosen would be agreed by myself and the landowner prior to planting to ensure that your favourite veggies are at hand.

I'm looking for access to land in the neighborhood to grow some vegetables and salad. Happy to do this collaboratively with other people as well :)

We live in the Eau Claire Market area of downtown and because we live on the river...I've been told that Ft. Calgary back in the day, could grow corn for the troops due to the river valley climate. Amazing! My husband and I spent a considerable sum of money in the past 10 years creating 3 large raised beds....all with organic soil and also have 3 other garden spaces plus several large containers that we have successfully grown potatoes in for some years and some medium sized pots, also the ability to hang tomato bags from a west facing fence. We now have a 2 year old which doesn't leave a lot of time for gardening, but do not want to abandon the potential of what we have created and been using with bio-dynamic methods. In one year, we had 17 different species in the garden! I'm wondering if you are interested in using this space, and how it would work...as we would still want to do a limited amount of tending the garden and using some of the produce. We also have an on-site composter which you are welcome to use...or take the soil away for other purposes. Our garden also benefits from being above a heated garage so that the season starts earlier and ends later for us due to the extra heat it gets. You'd also have the benefit of serving some REALLY local clients. We can see the River Cafe from our backyard and can also see Prego, upscale Italian in Eau Claire Mall and there is the Good Earth Cafe which might want some of the produce. Perhaps the Eau Claire Sheraton hotel restaurant would also be interested in some of the produce? 1 raised bed is East facing. 1 raised bed is south facing. Fence is west facing. 1 raised bed is West facing. 3 garden areas as well. Pots can be moved around too.

Want to find land for farming/gardening, growing veggies, livestocks, poultry.

I have a backyard that I don't use, Keele/Sheppard area, willing to offer it to someone who'd like to grow produce, in exchange for a small nibble of the produce. I'm unable to help, but would be happy to give you complete access and full reign to the backyard.

Hey there, I'm interested in growing some veggies this summer but I don't have any land to do it on. I am just looking for some patio space, yards, rooftops, or other available spaces to utilize for the production of organic food. Preferably in Rosemont. Thanks
