Copley Community Orchard is on the unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We have partnered with the City of Vancouver (not Vancouver Parks) to work with community members to create an urban agriculture site on the former grounds of Richard and Marie Copley’s orchard. The site had been vacant for decades, and now, in ke

eping with the site’s history, our focus is perennial fruit culture as we connect to the land, food, and each other. The site includes an apple orchard, espaliered apple and pear trees, rare or unique fruit trees, berry bushes and fruiting shrubs. There is a focus on community celebration and education, as well as good old fashioned organic food production!
