Excerpt:
As co-CEO of the Montreal-based MicroHabitat, Panet leads more than 15 branches worldwide, helping build what has become the world’s largest private urban farming network. Today, some 400 urban farms operate on residences, office buildings, schools and hospitals.
“Our goal is to familiarize people with the importance of local food systems, sustainability and urban farming — and how to practice it,” says Panet, who studied management at the John Molson School of Business. “We offer a full platform with communication tools.”
Founded in 2016, MicroHabitat uses non-intrusive technology, such as potted-plant systems that preserve the roof membranes, and supports clients by connecting them with food banks or organizations that accept produce donations.
In Montreal, the company’s urban farms can be found in locations ranging from the World Trade Centre and the Sun Life Building to the Eaton Centre and Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine. And its footprint continues to grow, with plans for cities such as Ottawa, Quebec City and Columbus, Ohio, on the horizon.
