Research-driven tools for local food security
An agri research-and-development organization building practical tools to strengthen Canadian food sovereignty—by supporting local farms and scaling fresh produce production.
Grow what your local market asks for—without adding complexity.
More varieties. Higher quality. Better predictability—with workflows that stay simple.
Increase demand, improve margins, reduce waste.
Align production with purchasing so you sell more—and throw out less.
Unique produce. Locally grown. Harvested fresh.
Stand out with ingredients that tell a story—and deliver on quality.
Food insecurity isn't distant or rare. GreenReach exists to help communities and growers respond with durable, local capacity—not just short-term relief.
Mapping the vulnerabilities of Canada's fresh-produce supply and the barriers preventing local alternatives from scaling.
Identifying operational, market-access, and risk factors that hold back small and mid-sized growers—and what "support systems" actually move the needle.
Separating hype from reality with unit economics, labour practicality, energy strategy, and go-to-market pathways that work in Canadian conditions.
Our approach is grounded in rigorous research addressing the real barriers preventing local food systems from scaling—then proven through practical pilot projects.
A real-world model for producing fresh greens in repurposed urban infrastructure—designed to improve local access, reduce fragility in the supply chain, and create transparent, community-connected distribution.
We design technology to amplify people and local capability, not displace it: clearer workflows, fewer failure points, better planning, and stronger operating confidence.
A recipe-driven platform for urban farms that connects growing operations to real inventory: crop plans, traceability, compliance-ready records, harvesting workflows, and simple scanning to keep admin low and reliability high.
A pragmatic growing system engineered for repeatability, cleanability, and day-to-day usability—so farms can scale without requiring specialist labour or complex retrofits.
GreenReach is guided by the same Canada-wide themes driving today's most effective food work: partnership across sectors, research-led decision-making, and solutions that also reduce waste and improve sustainability.
