The Rainbow Community Garden on the University of Manitoba campus uses food as a universal language to link people from all over the world in a time of crisis and uncertainty.
On the University of Manitoba campus, 279 families grow their food in plots in the Rainbow Community Garden. The garden has been there for 15 years and in a time of major food inflation it’s only becoming more popular.
“The squash lasts longer in the basement, so it helps me to eat all winter long because they’re there and I don’t have to buy from the store.” “Most of them tell me that they save at least $100 a month from mid-June to the end of October,” Ngarboui says. Ngarboui says organizers recently caught some people stealing from the garden but later learned they were single parents who could not afford fresh produce.
