Fruit Tree Project

Through the the Fruit Tree Project, we connect dedicated volunteers with fruit tree owners in the Greater Victoria region, to harvest and share fruit that would otherwise go to waste, ensuring fresh local produce reaches community members who need it most.

Lending Library

New this year, thanks to support from the CRD’s ReThink Waste Grant & the Government of Canada’s Local Food Infrastructure Fund, we’ve launched a Lending Library!

The Lending Library is stocked with food-processing equipment that community members can borrow, helping us reduce food waste and make food preservation more accessible.

To become a member of the Lending Library, you’ll need to have a LifeCycles Membership. Once you’re a member, you can borrow equipment for free, year round. When your membership is confirmed, staff will active your account so you can begin borrowing equipment.
