The non-profit corporation Mosaïcultures Internationales de Montréal (MIM) was created in 1998 to launch the first-ever Mosaïcultures Internationales® in the Parc des Éclusiers (Old Port of Montréal), in association with the city’s Parks, Gardens and Green Spaces Department. Its mission is to promote gardening and horticulture as both an expression of new millennium values and a vital component of the urban landscape.
