Sprouts is an organic, local, vegetarian eatery in the basement of UBC's Student Union Building. It is run by a group of students dedicated to supporting sustainable food systems, cultivating community, and promoting awareness of agriculture, ecology, taste, health, and social justice.

It is a dynamic space that has become a favourite destination for food, coffee and conversation for many people on campus. Food is the heart and soul of Sprouts, and an energetic team of volunteers whips up soup, bread, and baked treats using wholesome local and organic ingredients.

Volunteer placements offer students a unique learning opportunity; our volunteers gain invaluable experience in everything from breadmaking to inventory management to accounting. Please see the volunteer info page to learn about how you can help out!
