my edible garden
So local
it's your
own backyard!
urban
organic food production
My Edible Garden specializes in helping you grow your own food.
As issues of food security and purity are more prevalent, knowing where our food comes from is becoming increasingly important.
Our goal is to provide Toronto communities
with the necessary education, infrastructure,
and support to enable everyone to participate in this movement. Growing your own food will help ensure that you and your family are enjoying nutrient rich, organic food, while decreasing
your impact on the environment.
