City hall says an updated agriculture plan is important to the city to ensure it has clear polices in place to promote and protect agriculture while preserving the character of Kelowna.

The updated plan will be developed with input from farmers and consumers and public engagement will provide what the city says will be a valuable opportunity for residents to discuss the future of agriculture and food in the community.
