Are you a tenant in a Toronto Community Housing property? 

Toronto Community Housing (TCHC) is updating its Community Garden Policy. This policy sets out the conditions and expectations for tenants and tenant-led groups to start and/or participate in community gardens on TCHC property. TCHC is partnering with Toronto Urban Growers to get tenant feedback on best practices.
