I'm just getting started with my own project (building some cold frames for winter growing), and it looks like I'll have plenty of extra space. I've got a pretty big lawn (about 2000 sq. ft.), although not all of it gets maximum southern exposure, and I've also got a paved area (about 400 sq. ft.) which could be used for above-ground growing. I won't be able to make use of all the space, so message me if you would like to check it out.

Hi there I'm in St. James Town in Toronto and am looking to secure a bit of land for 2013 growing season, in the downtown core. I will not use any pesticides or synthetics on your land-my goal is to leave the soil in a better state than it was when I started. I'm currently interning (full-time) with BUFCO (Backyard Urban Farm Co), and I begin my studies for certification in Sustainable Urban Agriculture through the University of Guelph this September. I am specifically interested in heirloom and native seed-saving (a living seed catalogue), and many other things. Let me know if you or anyone you know 'fits the bill'. I will share my harvest and knowledge with you! Ideally, I'd like to be able to acquire something in time for the fall-so I can work the soil in order to get off to the best possible start in the spring. thanks!

We are not farmers, but we are big supporters of organic farming. We own land in PEI (are living in Toronto) and are looking for a farmer to plant organic wheat or rye. We will not be charging rent. Please contact Bernadette at bernadettestantonmeijer@msn.com.

Two parcels of land in New Annan, PEI that would qualify for organic farming. They have been hay for 30 years. One field is 20 acres and another one 9 acres. Interested in renting to organic producer. Contact Wyman Moase at 902-432-4884 (PEI).

Hello! I have been working on farms since 2010 and would like to be growing food independently for the 2013 season. Ideally I would like an acre of land to work by hand, unless someone has machinery to share. I would like to be within 50km of the new Tantallon Farmer's Market, which is my first choice for vending. Landsharing could be a great way to develop a market before I actually purchase land. I am developing a long-term business plan but I don't want to take the growing season off to go search for land!

Private and serene best describe this nature friendly, conservation oriented property that overlooks a small lake. High diversity of bird and wildlife species in sloughs, woods, and grasslands. Grass has not been grazed for 5 years, but there is potential for well-managed pulsed grazing operations. Includes garden, raspberries, and fruit trees (cherries and apples beginning to bear this year). Buffalo Lake only 5 minutes away. Solid, bright home with cork flooring and large windows to enjoy the big sky views. This property would be very suitable for someone (or a community of people) who will appreciate and manage the property's outstanding ecological values.

Hello Dear Land Keepers, I would like to find a place near Toronto, preferably South or South East of Toronto, Niagra Region would be great. I envision a small patch of fertile land for the next Summer, 2013, less than 1/2 hectare to grow food for myself and family/friends. Ideally, it is in a beautiful place near Forests and Rivers, Creeks, perhaps near the Escarpment and the Bruce Trail. Access to other growers would be nice but not key. I am also interested in connecting with great people who feel deeply respectful of the Earth, who are attentive to the lessons of the Nature and value time spent in communication with the Earth. Ideally I would like to rent from a family who is experienced in growing responsibly and organically, and avoids mono cultural/commercial patterns. Thank you,
