Urban Farm at TMU: Bringing Ecology and Food Sovereignty to Rooftops in the City
In a city with more than 700 green roofs, the Urban Farm at TMU is proud to have launched the first rooftop farm to be built as a result of Toronto’s Green Roof Bylaw. This is the Urban Farm’s second rooftop farm location; the space is dedicated to growing culturally-significant crops and food sovereignty knowledge mobilization. Join Black-led Programs Coordinator, Nicole Austin, and Research Coordinator, Sharene Shafie, to learn more about what the Urban Farm does, how it benefits the campus and community, and to hear about future plans to help grow more rooftop farms across the City of Toronto. Moderated by Cherise Burda, City Building TMU.
