The SPEC Urban Farmer Field School is a new social enterprise/environmental education initiative to bring local food and agriculture awareness to Vancouver, BC. Students of the 6-month program will learn the ins-and-outs of urban agriculture, community environmental stewardship, and business planning, while greening the face of the city with new front yard food gardens.
