As the struggle to put food on the table or gas in the car persists due to growing inflation, many Metro #Vancouver residents are turning to food banks and other non-profit organizations to bridge their widening financial gap.

Murray Baker, financial empowerment manager of Family Services of Greater Vancouver, says demand for the non-profit’s free financial planning services has risen nearly 50 per cent this fiscal quarter compared to last year.

#GroceryCosts stood out as a growing concern, the #Canadian Social Survey found. Twenty-three per cent of Canadians reported they were “somewhat” or “very likely” to get food or meals from community organizations over the next six months.

Modern FarmerFood Costs are Still Sky High. Communal Gardening Could HelpWhen Mark Joseph began noticing reports about food prices climbing due to inflation and other economic factors, he started looking into options on how to cut food costs. Joseph, a small-time farmer and parenting coach, quickly zeroed in on communal gardening. “Growing my food seemed like a cost-effective way to feed my family rather than buying expensive produce at the grocery store,” he says.  Communal gardening is the practice of growing food in a collectively shared space. Communal gardens can take many forms, from plots of land rented out to individuals to urban farms where groups of people work together
