What if our park became a food forest?

​Sow your own greens and tell us what the park should become

​Square de la Putterie has beautiful trees, but the ground under them is bare and compacted, and rain no longer soaks in.

​There's room for what's missing between the soil and the branches, such as berry bushes, herbs and edible flowers. Let's start a food forest in the middle of the city, cared for and harvested by the neighborhood!

​Two hours at the Commons Hub, next to the park

• ​Ice breaker: sow lettuce, basil, parsley and more in a dirt block or an egg carton, and take them home 🥗

• ​Talk about food forests and what they could bring to the park: produce to pick, rain that soaks in, a feeling of community... 🌳

• ​Tell us what you'd change. Not just what we could plant, but how the park feels to walk through.

​Our park is the first thing many people see when they leave the Central Station. Let's make it beautiful. This conversation exists to shape the project's next steps. Your voice and curiosity are valued!
