FarmAde 2019

The 17^th annual FarmAde celebrates the UBC Farm and sustainable food with music, dancing, and food (of course) – all in the fields of the UBC Farm. Connect with old friends and new, do a square dance or two (or ten), plus learn all about your local teaching and learning farm, sustainability and food security on campus, and how you can get involved.

Started as a student-led, grassroots movement to save the UBC Farm from development, FarmAde is a celebration of the UBC Farm, and has grown into one of the largest annual events at UBC.

Square dancing into the sunset, the sizzle from the food trucks, laughter from the beer gardens, lazy picnics and lawn games: this UBC Farm Fest is the best way to launch the new school year.

FarmAde brings together UBC community members of all ages to celebrate community, local food and local Vancouver talent. The event also brings together organizations and movements that support sustainability, local food, and raise awareness about food security issues.
