🚇 Transit
Don't get dumped at the main UBC bus loop and face a long trek across campus. Look for bus routes that travel south along Wesbrook Mall, which will drop you much closer to the farm's entrance.
🚗 Parking
You're on a university campus, so paid parking is the rule. Thankfully, there's a dedicated pay lot right at the farm, so finding a spot is straightforward—just have your credit card ready.
