The Carrot Green Roof & Garden is a rooftop oasis and meeting place above The Big Carrot Community Market to the east of downtown Toronto.

The rooftop is an 8000 square foot space that includes vegetation, garden exhibits and a place to gather.

We use a white board in our shed to communicate and record garden data. This little doodle remained there all summer and sums up the energy of the Carrot Green Roof and Garden. ☮️💚

We’ve wrapped up most of our activities for this season. Thanks to everyone who visited, volunteered and enjoyed our space in a particularly odd year!

The roof will remain open until the end of the month! 🌱

Today we turned our steamy, active compost!
Lots of microbial activity and breakdown. Turning it over helps oxygenate the contents and keep the aerobic activity going!

Are you seed saving?
It’s that time of year when plants and their seeds dry out and we can collect them for future growing! Great resources at Seeds of Diversity Canada Toronto Seed Library

COVID-19 Indigenous Seed Crisis Response Circle, organized by Sovereign Seeds Indigenous Seed Sovereignty Network 10/04/2020

Since the creation stories of this continent to the genocidal colonial policies and practices that persist today, Indigenous-to-North-America communities have been singing to, praying for, dancing with, and co-cultivating the seeds they belong to as an act of relational governance and intergenerational love.

This good work – in defiance of industrial agriculture, seed commodification, and biocolonialism – is heart’s work, and is chronically targeted and under-resourced within dominating systems of racial injustice and displacement denying accountability to Indigenous peoples and the food agreements that are their sacred inheritance.

By supporting the COVID-19 Indigenous Seed Crisis Response Circle, you are supporting a more just and resilient future for generations of seeds and seed keepers to come.

We did something awesome today! We closed the loop on our green waste on the green roof!
With the help of FoodShare Toronto and our awesome volunteers we built a 3 bin composter and filled it with our garden waste, leaves we raked up, produce scraps and coffee grounds from The Big Carrot Natural Food Market
