A brief description of the garden:

"Growing Roots Over Western" (G.R.O.W) is a community garden located just south of the TD Waterhouse stadium. GROW team members participate by growing their own lot of food, and then harvesting and sharing the produce at the end of the season. The GROW garden began growing in 2005.
