Roots Coalition
Communication between the gardens is facilitated by the Roots Coalition, a student-run network for collaboration and resource-sharing between gardens on the downtown campus. The coalition aims to highlight the value of gardens on McGill’s landscape, and foster a culture that allows students and gardeners to feel connected to campus spaces.
