In 2006, Ecosource became a leader in local food literacy, when it opened the first community garden in Mississauga. Today, Ecosource manages 8 community gardens as well as a large urban agriculture teaching site and delivers mobile food growing workshops to thousands of Peel residents.

LOCAL FOOD

WASTE REDUCTION
EDUCATION

Engaging students in contemporary waste issues and fostering critical thinking, the Waste Reduction Workshops aim to inspire change in waste practices.

YOUTH ACTION

Ecosource assists youth in creating sustained environmental change in schools and the community by working with the ever expanding Peel Environmental Youth Alliance network and increasing the number of youth using active transportation through our Youth Active Transportation Campaign program.

SUSTAINABILITY EDUCATION
AND NATURE PLAY

Sustainability Education engages participants and volunteers in programs that encourage us to think critically about the well-being of the environment and ourselves. In addition to delivering on- and off-site workshops on sustainability themes, we bring children’s outdoor play programming to schools and community groups.
