Beyond Private Ownership: Where does the conversation need to go?
With Episode 5 comes an in depth conversation between two (previous) co-farmers and friends on how to find security in a precarious system.
This episode is part of a larger conversation of imagining a relationship to land that is beyond our colonial understanding. We intend to continue the conversation after this series is released, and we encourage you to reach out to producer Maddie Marmor if you have ideas on how to do so.

Farming on 'Public' Lands - Highs and Lows
Within the Canadian context, ‘public’ lands refers to lands a government has first jurisdiction over – like a park, or ‘crown land’. In this understanding, the ‘people’ of that nation are the first (human) stakeholders who should be considered when making decisions on that land. S&G wanted to find those very few public land scenarios in Canada where food growing was the main consideration, and to hear from those who are farming there – the perks, the oversight, what was possible and what still needs dreaming up.
There is so much potential here – from hydro corridors, to park land, to those strips of grass between ‘private’ property and public infrastructure that a government oversees, where we could be growing food, closer to home, with more hands involved.
We were excited about this one, and we hope you are too!
