Food forests
This initiative involves planting numerous fruit trees, berry bushes, and medicinal plants in a public space accessible to everyone, allowing anyone to pick and gather fruits and medicinal plants.
​
In 2022, the Corridor proudly began its collaboration with Les Fruits Défendus, a Montreal-based urban fruit-picking collective overseen by Santropol Roulant. This volunteer initiative connects fruit tree owners with volunteer pickers to organize fruit harvests.
