A shift to agroecology requires a transition from conventional farming practices that depend highly on energy and greenhouse-gas intensive inputs to practices that conserve soil and water and recycle nutrients. Yet, there is very little research on how farmers are shifting to agroecological in places where the landscape is dominated by conventional agriculture, as is the case on the Canadian Prairies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62251c157af1ef4305dfdfe6/7fffb99b-9a77-4d11-9288-449e1664481f/Tannis.jpg Transitioning to Agroecology on the Prairies - This project uses participatory methodologies that generated both visual and textual/verbal data. This research seeks to answer the following questions: How do non-conventional farmers in the Canadian Prairies define agroecology? Do they consider themselves agroecological? What is their vision for agroecology on the Prairies, and do they think it is a pathway to sustainable food systems in the face of the climate crisis? This project is a collaboration with the National Farmers Union of Canada (NFU). It combines academic, farming, and filmmaking expertise to engage in critical research focused on problems of joint interest to collaborators by exploring the potential to transform food systems in the context of an unfolding climate crisis. https://www.landfoodsovereignty.ca/bow-valley daily 0.75 2024-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62251c157af1ef4305dfdfe6/1aac0383-573c-4ac7-84c2-b467ebf2e6f4/Cultivating_Community_Poster.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62251c157af1ef4305dfdfe6/2d1c66d2-d4b7-4a88-b61a-f7cffa2e6545/Food%2C+Fragility%2C+and+Fortitude+Report+Release+Graphic.png Building relationships through food sovereignty in the Bow Valley - Food, Fragility, and Fortitude: COVID-19 in the Bow Valley better understanding the mechanisms that these groups use to create just food systems, challenge power disparities among constituents, and break down broader systems of oppression. Research questions include: In what ways does food sovereignty encourage community-based groups to challenge systems of oppression such as white supremacy, colonialism, and patriarchy? How does food sovereignty mitigate disparities among and between food systems actors and what does this look like in practice?

The organization’s broad membership includes new farmers struggling to access land, retiring farmers struggling to figure out what to do with their land, and increasingly, Black, Indigenous and People of Colour (BIPOC) farmers who face both historic and present forms of land dispossession. https://www.landfoodsovereignty.ca/more-food-sovereignty-research daily 0.75 2023-04-03 https://www.landfoodsovereignty.ca/podcast daily 0.75 2022-06-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62251c157af1ef4305dfdfe6/54d2bf76-a355-4343-b725-effc559ddcf4/farmland+matters+title+image.png Podcast - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.landfoodsovereignty.ca/youngfarmers daily 0.75 2024-01-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62251c157af1ef4305dfdfe6/89b77676-bf1c-40c5-a3e3-d70738a17e19/Screenshot+2022-08-09+220806.png
