LUSH Valley Food Action Society

Sustainable food organization.

LUSH Valley is a catalyst for food-related projects, working to strengthen relationships in the local food system and build on individuals’ food skills in an effort to increase self-reliance. Fruit harvesting and farm gleaning remain core programs that supply local food box programs, in addition to teaching classes, and supporting urban and local agriculture.


Mission Statement
We envision a region where healthy, local food is at the heart of community wellbeing. We support the Comox Valley community to gain food-systems tools, engage in just and resilient local food systems and receive equitable access to nourishing food.
