Unearthing Our Common Roots

We want to foster a community where people feel engaged and comfortable talking about climate action.

Events

Hosting events has helped form friendships and foster relationships with those who share the same passion for the environment.

What we do

We’re turning suburban neighborhoods into communities that actually know each other—and want to take climate action together.

Community Garden

At the Kirkham Collective Garden, we create a fun space to learn about gardening together in a way that honours the land.

OUR OBJECTIVES

Making Markham net-zero 2050.

Help the city of Markham reach its sustainability goals by 2050.
