Create a “Food Street” with Food Up Front

Kassie Miedema and Mark Stewart

Mark Stewart and Kassie Miedema join us to talk about a grassroots program encouraging people to grow food in front yards.

The idea is to produce more food locally—and to connect people around food.

Participants in the program can also put up a sign in the garden to raise awareness of the idea—and to stir up conversation.

What does success look like? A food street, with many neighbours growing up front.

Food Up Front is an initiative of Transition Toronto, a chapter of a global movement for change.

“The goal being to create a food street.”
