| Thanks to Ross from Village Vancouver and to Emily, Lili, Vikas, Vani, Sihithi, Kirsten, Suzann, Carol, and Kellan for helping us put together origami packets of organic seeds to start the season right. Come by to help us fold the next time, or to pick up some seeds for your garden. We have herbs like bergamot, shiso and basil, edible flowers like nasturtium and borage, as well as beets, carrots, and radish and flowers for the pollinators. Hooray for Spring!
Our next “seed opportunity” will be a special workshop on learning how to grow and save your own seeds at UBC’s Wesbrook Community Centre forEarth Day, April 27th with Farm Folk City Folk’s Chris Thoreau. Farm Folk City Folk is working closely with Min. of Agriculture Lana Popham and the UBC Farm on testing, preserving and spreading organic local seeds in BC and Chris has graciously agreed to conduct this *free* workshop to spread the word about this amazing work here in our own Vancouver Pt. Grey. Email Dulcy at dulcy.anderson@leg.bc.ca to find out more about this workshop, seeds, or other volunteering opportunities. |
