Our mission is to create vibrant, healthy green spaces where children can play, families can connect with nature, and wildlife can thrive. By planting native species, supporting pollinators, and improving public spaces, we are building a stronger, greener Toronto for everyone — especially in areas that have historically been underserved.

 

This work is powered by volunteers, neighbors, and community members who believe that access to beautiful, healthy parks is a right, not a privilege. Together, we can transform neglected spaces into flourishing ecosystems that benefit our kids, our health, and our environment.

 

We invite you to join us — by volunteering, by spreading the word, and by calling on your elected representatives to support Nonna's Backyard. Public support is essential to ensure that our community spaces get the investment and care it deserves. With your voice, we can make lasting change.
