About this Event
Victoria is ready for a food system that feeds us all - sustainably, equitably, and locally. In 2026, let’s elect leaders who will make it happen!
Join the Victoria Urban Food Table (UFT) and the Fernwood Neighbourhood House on Monday, October 5th at the Fernwood Community Centre for a facilitated in-person forum to hear directly from candidates on where they stand on food systems issues and how they plan to address the growing needs for a food-secure region.
Doors open at 7PM and programming starts at 7:15PM.
Meet your Facilitator: Treska Watson
Treska Watson is the Executive Director of the Mustard Seed, a non-profit serving the capital region's food insecure communties. Following a career in hospitality and logistics, she was able to make the switch from corporate to non-profit and she hasn’t looked back since. Bringing her love of people, strong communication skills and a passion to serve our community, Treska has found her place at the Mustard Seed. When not at work she can be found exploring this beautiful island we call home, travelling and spending time with family and friends.
