The Edmonton Local Food Region
Surrounded by the rich, black soils of the northern prairies, Edmonton boasts a wonderfully active and highly collaborative local food community. The region's long, sunlit summer days give local growers a fantastic boost, resulting in an abundance of crisp field vegetables, sweet berries, and exceptional grains. Beyond the fields, Edmonton is a hub for independent food artisans, small-batch bakeries, and mindful livestock farmers raising pasture-fed meats. The heart of the city’s food culture beats at its massive, historic indoor and outdoor markets, which serve as essential year-round connection points for families and farmers. It is a warm, deeply creative landscape where neighbors take genuine pride in protecting the land and celebrating local food security.
