It was good to see that the McGill University edible campus garden is continuing into 2009. The project is a partnership with the Rooftop Garden Project, also in Montreal. This is my model of what a 21st century community garden should look like.
They have done an outstanding job of documenting the project with pictures. It is a joy to see the campus and community involvement that includes both the young and old.
The Rooftop Garden Project is a leader in the use of recycling to make sub-irrigated planters of many configurations. For example, you can see tote boxes and half barrels in the photo above.
