The Sharing Farm project is located at two sites: South end of Gilbert Road beside the City Tree Nursery, and in the Terra Nova Rural Park – 2631 Westminster Highway, near the West Dyke.

The Terra Nova Sharing Farm is the project's permanent home. In late 2008 the farm expanded from 1.5 acres to 2.5 acres when the City of Richmond donated more farmland, spacious garages and an 170 hazelnut tree grove.

In eight years the Richmond Fruit Tree Sharing Project has harvested over 130,000 pounds of fruit and vegetables to give to those living with poverty.
