Updating our database
We are in the process of updating our database to have multiple contact lists in one central place with the ability to email or mail select groups. This should help us streamline communications but in the process we have discovered some duplication and other errors. We sincerely apologize and ask that you please let us know if you are receiving duplicates or if you are receiving messages you’d rather not receive. Thank You for your patience! |

Expansion Application Update
In order to be able to expand our building, we need to make a Non-Farm Use Application with the City & the Agricultural Land Commission. As this can be a complicated process, we have hired a consultant group to assist us. They have already done a great deal of work in preparation. In December 2024, Gleaners had a preliminary meeting with the City of Abbotsford’s Planning Department. Soon we will be ready to submit our application to the City. If approved, our application will be referred to the ALC. This process along with potential rezoning, upgrades & building permits is likely to take 18-24 months or more. We covet your prayers. |
