Campus gardens
Concordia is home to four gardens at Loyola and a rooftop greenhouse at SGW. The focus of these spaces range from growing food to supporting urban biodiversity, but what they share in common is in offering places for our community to learn, gather and relax.

It's quite likely that you have passed one of our campus gardens at the Loyola campus. Or perhaps you have heard about the Concordia greenhouse. Volunteer or learn more about the amazing student-led initiatives connecting our campus community to experiential learning, food security, and sustainable food options.

The Greenhouse provides a welcoming, organic green space that fosters community by providing experiential learning opportunities within a year-round growing environment.
Please note that volunteer opportunities are severely limited during the summer due to excessive heat in the greenhouse.

The community garden is the People's Potato's main summer project. Its goal is to provide a space that encourages volunteer participation while providing community members with access to fresh and organic vegetables. Everyone who participates in the project is encouraged to implement new ideas and undertake new initiatives.
Territorial acknowledgement
Our gardens are located on unceded Indigenous lands and we acknowledge and give gratitude to those who stewarded and continue to steward this land. The Kanien’kehá:ka Nation is recognized as the custodians of the lands and waters of Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal, historically known as a gathering place for many First Nations. Today, it is home to a diverse population of Indigenous and other peoples. We respect the continued connections with the past, present and future in our ongoing relationships with Indigenous and other peoples within the Montreal community.
