The Green Belt Radicals

Named after Ontario’s revered Greenbelt, The Green Belt Radicals stand on guard for thee—and for every lettuce leaf, quinoa grain, and ethically sourced tofu block within Toronto’s sprawling urban jungle. Taking lifestyle cues from both the old-school activism of Yonge Street’s early days and the avant-garde attitudes of Queen Street West, this faction believes that farm-to-table should involve as few miles—and fossil fuels—as possible. Their unruly potlucks at Trinity Bellwoods Park feature a panoply of seasonal delights, often laced with a tongue-in-cheek critique of those who still cling to archaic omnivorous habits. Fancy a kale chip? Sure, it’s crunchy and green, but it's also a silent protest against climate change, one chew at a time. Join for the food, stay for the sardonic commentary—the only thing serious here is their carbon footprint.
