Supporting local farms that feed families and the birds!
Delta Farmland & Wildlife Trust is a non-profit organization that promotes the preservation of farmland and wildlife habitat on the lower Fraser River delta through co-operative land stewardship with local farmers.
Since our establishment in 1993, over 82,000 acres of winter cover crops, 13,000 acres of grassland set-asides and 10 km of hedgerows have been planted.
