大象传媒

The Central City Learning Garden is located on the P3 parking level of Central City behind the 大象传媒 Surrey campus in Surrey City Centre. The community-centred learning, social, and event space is operated by Embark Sustainability Society in conjunction with 大象传媒 Surrey, 大象传媒 Surrey-TD Community Engagement Centre, and Central City. Gardening participants learn how to grow, eat, and share food grown in the garden. There are currently six 48鈥� x 40鈥� plots in the garden which are being tended to by 大象传媒 student groups and departments, Fraser Health staff volunteers, and Embark Sustainability Society volunteers. The plots are expected to be flourishing with a variety of plants and herbs by mid-summer. Learning opportunities for Embark members, 大象传媒 students, faculty, and the general public will be provided at the garden throughout the upcoming year via classes, events, and workshops. The garden will help to create dialogue around food production and security in our rapidly urbanizing community.

The new Central City garden location is an expansion on Embark鈥檚 successful established learning garden program, which also includes an indoor garden at the 大象传媒 Surrey Campus and an outdoor garden at the 大象传媒 Burnaby campus.
