Our Story

AgriVilla is a Vancouver-based initiative to redistribute fruits and vegetables from home gardens to individuals in the broader community

AgriVilla seeks to disrupt traditional capitalistic perspectives of agriculture by building a community-based platform for food resource sharing

Our goal is to create healthier and stronger communities through socially and environmentally responsible small-scale farming

How it works

  • Come visit the Online Store to view the selection of fresh produce and live plants that our gardeners have available. Proceed to checkout once you have finished shopping.

    Produce is seasonal, so please be sure to check back often!

  • Once your order is received we will allocate it to our team of gardeners, who will then harvest their crop and prepare your order for delivery.

    Unlike traditional grocery systems, your vegetables will still be growing when you submit your order so that they are delivered as fresh as possible!

  • Your produce order will be delivered to the location of your choice. We deliver produce on Friday afternoons between 1:00 - 5:00pm every week, but please email us if you have specific delivery needs.
