In the McGill Tribune
September 25, 2007

During the summer, McGill's architecture department teamed up with Roof-Top Gardens to illustrate how urban agriculture can be a real possibility by growing an assortment of vegetables and fruits over the concrete steps of the Burnside building. Last Thursday, the architecture department and the local organization held a Harvest Festival in front of Burnside building.

"The vegetables are all organic, pesticide and hormone-free," Roof-Top Gardens volunteer Julie Lanctot said. "Roof-Top gardens are an option for any household. We have workshops to teach people how to grow vegetables in the containers and make compost. It's also a great way for people to find out where their food is coming from and witness the growing process."
