Apparently (after 10 years of requests) Alberta Infrastructure is going to release its death grip on idle 14,000 acres on #YEG TUC for #UrbanAg. #ABGov has been tactically silent about it, so spread the word! vendor.purchasingconnection.… @GrowEdmonton #ableg #yegcc #Farm #abpoli

Grow Calgary is seeking a Governor of Gratitude. Quite possibly the most enjoyable volunteer position we have, other than getting dirt under your nails farming. DM us for more info or to apply. #yyc

Infrastructure Alberta can no longer justify arbitrarily withholding enormous land inventories (29,000 acres) from citizens wanting to build a resilient, fair & local food system. #C19 #jobs #ableg #cdnpoli #yyc #yeg #yyccc #yegcc #farm #food #foodsecurity #urbanag

@GrowCalgary has been requesting a TUC review for 10 years. In that time, Infrastructure Alberta has had 8 different ministers. #TUFFCorridor @GrowAlberta #ableg #yyc #yyccc #cdnpoli #AlbertaFoodSystem #FoodSecurity

This time last year we were giving away topsoil mixed with compost. @Prasadpandayyc & Infrastructure Alberta put up barricades to stop us from doing that & then plowed our soil into TUC. #C19 #ableg #farm #garden #food #AlbertaFoodSystem #yyc #yeg @GrowAlberta #Drilling4SOIL

Does Alberta Infrastructure care about anything other than cars? #ableg

Pollinators are a huge contributor to Alberta Ag & our GDP. Dandelions are a huge part of our pollinators spring diet. Why tf then is Alberta Infrastructure mowing & destroying dandelions on TUC at this sensitive time? #yyc #yeg #ableg #cdnpoli #food #eco #green #Mow2Grow
