Local Food Production

Local Food Production

 

We will explore and promote the potential for local food production in Nunavut.

 

Local food production means we grow, harvest, and distribute foods that we don’t normally produce in Nunavut. We can learn from creative projects in other northern communities that produce local vegetables, meats, and other foods.

Local food production can help increase food security and self-reliance.

Objectives:

3.1 Promote innovation by supporting research efforts and project initiatives that explore ways of producing food locally.
3.2 Develop a 5-Year Plan for Nunavut’s Growing Forward Program.
3.3 Explore the financial and operational viability of local food production in Nunavut.
3.4

Empower Nunavummiut to produce food locally.
