London's Pretty Cool


Jul 24, 2021

Episode 41 with Mariam Waliji of Urban Roots London 

Urban Roots is a non-profit organization that revitalizes underused land in the City of London for agriculture by:

Producing high-quality, organic vegetables and herbs, distributing produce locally, directly to consumers and to private and social enterprises, developing agricultural opportunities for the neighbourhood, social enterprises, and community organizations within the City of London, and growing a self-sustaining, urban agricultural model to germinate to new sites.

In this episode, we talk about how Urban Roots got started, their weekly markets, the Model of Thirds that Urban Roots follows, their new composting program, educational programs that they have started, the Harvest dinner 2021 and so much more!
