The Greenbelt Foundation has released a new report, Ontario’s Greenbelt: The Key to Food Security in the Greater Golden Horseshoe.

The report, prepared by the Canadian Agri-Food Policy Institute as part of the Visioning the Future of the Greenbelt series, examines the Greenbelt as a strategic asset for Ontario. With prime farmland located next to Canada’s largest consumer market and agri-food hub, the Greenbelt has the potential to strengthen domestic food production, support the agri-food economy, and advance food sovereignty and economic security.

A webinar on Tuesday, April 28 at 1 p.m. will present insights from the report. The discussion will explore how the Greenbelt can support a strong and resilient agri-food system, highlighting its economic importance, its role in preserving prime farmland, and its contribution to Ontario’s agriculture and food manufacturing cluster.
