How It Works
Becoming a Vendor
AgriVilla relies entirely on the hard work and generosity of home gardeners to supply fresh fruits and vegetables to the program. As a Vendor, you play a key role in being the boss of your own virtual farmer’s market. Through our online platform you exhibit the produce that you have available, while also providing details of your crop including quantity available and expected harvest date.
- Must live on the North Shore (North or West Vancouver) and have access to a home vegetable garden or urban farm
- Garden must be free of pesticides, herbicides, and other potentially toxic chemicals
Benefits
- Supporting a very worthy cause. Know that the produce you provide will help feed a local family in need
- Prevent food waste! Much of the produce grown in home gardens unfortunately ends up being disposed of
