Do you live in a neighborhood in Toronto or York Region that has an urban farm or a community garden? If yes, we would like to hear from you.

We invite you to participate in Seneca Polytechnic’s research study on the impact of urban farms and community gardens on your neighborhood.

You have the option to share your experiences by participating in either a 20-minute online survey or a 60–90-minute focus group (virtual or in-person). Focus group participants will receive an honorarium.
