2025 Garden

Superlative:

Out of all 40+ Up Top Acres gardens & farms,

Thanks from your farmer, Nadine!

The rooftop garden at Columbia Square was an incredible success this season! We harvested over 1,600 pounds of produce, equivalent to roughly 17,000 servings, which tenants enthusiastically collected every week from June to October.

Harvest table highlights included mountains of sweet peppers, eggplants, and cucumbers, piles of fluffy kale and collards, and aromatic herbs that filled the lobby with their wonderful smells. Interspersed between the vegetable crops, we grew a colorful array of pollinator-attracting flowers, and we often saw honey bees exploring their blooms.

We are very much looking forward to another season of bountiful harvests in 2026!
