Our Mission

Cultivate Cochrane is a non-profit society that empowers people to grow their own food through demonstration and education. We collaborate to increase food sovereignty, climate resilience, health and wellbeing.

Our Vision

Cochrane and area is a vibrant, collaborative place where sustainable agriculture is widely understood and increasingly adopted in our challenging climate. Infrastructure exists so nutritious produce is regeneratively grown and accessible to all.

Our Mandate

Cultivate Cochrane is dedicated to developing a resilient and connected community through food, innovation, and lifestyle empowerment centred around a community greenhouse hub.  We serve the community of Cochrane by providing opportunities and resources related to growing food in a challenging climate, improving health and lifestyle, and connecting deeply to place and each other.


The Big Vision: A Passive Solar Community Greenhouse Hub for Cochrane!

This won’t be your typical greenhouse! It will be a gathering hub where we grow community while answering the question “how do we feed ourselves sustainably in this place?” It’s all about solutions towards a rich, resilient future.
— Jackie Skrypnek, Cultivate Cochrane co-founder
