Whether starting from scratch with holiday baking, or planning to pick up baked goods from a local store, British Columbians can choose to Buy BC this season and enjoy the bounty of the province’s agriculture sector.

Five new projects around the province are helping local honey bees and other native pollinators through research and engagement, with support from the Government of British Columbia.

Governments remain dedicated to helping the ranchers, farmers and apiarists of British Columbia who have been impacted by the devastating effects of the wildfires throughout the province.

The Regional District of Central Okanagan (RDCO), a major hub for all things B.C. agriculture, has received a Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) community excellence award for Leadership and Innovation in Agriculture.

Together, the governments of Canada and British Columbia continue to support the people of British Columbia and First Nations communities facing the immediate and long-term impacts of wildfires.

The province’s seafood sector is providing British Columbians with wild and farm-raised fresh seafood, with flavours unique to the west coast and known all over the world.

Four British Columbia companies have each won $20,000 for developing B.C. tech to help solve a problem identified as part of the B.C. Ministry of Agriculture and the BC Innovation Council’s Innovation Challenge.
