Saint-Anne-de-Bellevue
Championed by green activist Ryan Young, Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue is striving to become a truly green city. We currently have two projects on the go. The first being to reface their water tower using kiwi vines which will be anchored in with metal supports to cover 40 feet high of surface area. This is being put into place to minimize maintenance and prevent graffiti.

The second project will have us lining their newly built bike path with fruit trees giving pedestrians and cyclists fruit, nuts and berries to eat as well as providing food for wildlife. This project should make Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue the city or town with the largest variety of fruit trees in Canada.

Maison Productive (Eco Habitat)
Rune Kongshang's sustainable urban living project is Montreal’s first ecological design that seeks carbon-neutrality and addresses various productive aspects of a responsible lifestyle: alternative energy, food garden, active transportation, more personal productivity and leisure time. The Green Barn will be putting the finishing touches on the project by installing a mini orchard utilizing permaculture techniques to minimize the use of space and maximize production. We will also be installing an indoor citrus and rare fruit garden.
