The Trent Vegetable Gardens (TVG) is a volunteer driven levy group at Trent University. We operate two ecological garden sites at Trent Univeristy
We operate two garden sites at Trent, the Rooftop Garden, which is located on top of the Environmental Science Complex, and the Field Garden, which can be found north of the DNA building. The gardens take inspiration from organic, intensive, permaculture, and Indigenous agricultural methods, and strive to practice low-impact ecological agriculture. The TVG seeks to reconnect students and community
