Urban Agriculture
Urban agriculture can be defined as activities that grow food or raise livestock within urban areas where the products are intended to be distributed off-site and consumed locally.

From May 2023 to September 2025, the Town ran its first urban garden in partnership with MicroHabitat Urban Farming and the Stony Plain Golf Course to produce food locally and educate the community on how they can do the same.
Located at 18 Fairway Drive, Stony Plain, the urban garden included a variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers that were donated to local food banks and non-profit organizations. Stony Plain's urban garden was one of the first initiatives that implements and supports efforts to increase education on and action towards urban agriculture.
