A communications hub for Newfoundland & Labrador

gardeners, farmers, foragers, hunters & fishers!

We acknowledge the island of Ktaqmkuk as the ancestral homeland and territory of the Beothuk and the Mi’kmaq
and Labrador as the ancestral territory of the Innu of Nitassinan, Inuit of Nunatsiavut, and Inuit of NunatuKavut.
We hold deep respect for the cultures, traditions and knowledge of all those who call these places home.
We acknowledge the damage of the past and the persistence of racist attitudes and policies.
We will work with Indigenous partners to make these territories places of healing and shared knowledge.

Food Producers Forum
New Executive Director


We are pleased to announce that Viviana Ramirez Luna, who trained in Colombia as a marine biologist studying fisheries, and who now lives here in St. John’s, is the new Executive Director of Food Producers Forum.

Viviana was an original member of our board. She has been involved in establishing community gardens in the city and has led the creation of the Newfoundland and Labrador Composting Co-op, a new group supporting and educating people about small scale composting, in communities right across the province.

She brings to this position her training as a biologist, her knowledge as a mother and someone deeply committed to making our province a better place to live. With her help we will continue to develop programs to address the need for healthy food in local communities.
