The Stop Community Food Centre, an organization that promotes universal access to healthy food, will soon plow its first urban farm at Weston Road and the 401 on six acres of land owned by the Sorbara Development Group. The company is leasing the land, currently zoned for a 550-unit high-rise, to The Stop for approximately $10 a year. And there are future plans to similarly develop other Sorbara-owned acreage in the Greenbelt. The Stop, it seems, is just getting started.
