Island Health and LUSH Valley work together to bring local produce to hospital patients Patients at North Island Hospital, Comox Valley (NIH-CV) are enjoying fresh, locally grown produce from Comox Valley farmers thanks to a new opportunity with LUSH Valley Food Action Society.

"LUSH Valley, which stands for Let Us Share the Harvest, purchases produce from multiple local farms and delivers it to #IslandHealth facilities, making it easier for the health authority to work with smaller growers."
