From food forest to food hall, we design edible green spaces for your bold initiatives.
Imagine if your city integrated food seamlessly into the urban experience, where it becomes a cornerstone of community wellbeing. Landscapes where orchards and community gardens thrive inside bustling neighbourhoods. Unused spaces become vibrant food markets and public allotments. Picture hospital cafeterias serving fresh, farm-to-table meals, or pop up nature parks that are open for community events. Spaces that enhance health and foster connections, welcoming a future where design and abundance converge.
"Gorilla Gardener cares so much about the benefits of food equity and natural systems, they are as committed as you are in the success of the endeavor."
Charles Boechler, Director Sustainability - Minto Communities
When you work with us, you work with us: Jack and Diane.
We are practical plant growers, scientists, designers, hospitality experts, and ultimately optimists. Many years of on-the-ground and around-the-table project experience have led us to think differently about community amenity. We've heard the challenges community builders face as cities change faster than ever before. We understand that homeowners are looking for new amenities as neighbourhood participation is plateauing. We've seen governments requiring more holistic outcomes from built projects as maintenance budgets increase due to climate change.
"Our work together to pitch a concept, secure trust and confidence in the abilities of our team, work with all the dynamics of building an expanded group of supporters, and get boots-on-the-ground to shape the reality of the program was inspiring."
Susan Antler, Executive Director - Compost Council of Canada
Our approach is inspired by nature and driven by community.
People want access to healthy, abundant spaces, and plenty of them. Position your project where the market is heading. Indoors or outdoors, make your green spaces stand out.
