KZA was retained by the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in First Nation (TH) to provide a phased Master Plan for a 37 hectare farm located 15 kilometres outside of Dawson City.

The plan was developed based the TH Farm foundation (vision, mission, values and goals), team site visits and groundtruthing, and the development of program elements and key program supports. The conceptual site plan includes the following primary zones of activity: farm campus, growing areas, and sharing and interpretation.

The farm campus is the centralized “hub” of the teaching and working aspects of the TH Farm and contains the necessary infrastructure for living, learning, teaching, processing and packing. Growing areas include: production fields, fruit/perennial production, a demonstration garden, and research plots in collaboration with Yukon College.

Natural amenities on site are places of sharing and interpretation, linked by a trail system which provides opportunities for foraging, fishing and recreation.
