It's from my friend, Jeff, whom I originally met off of Mastodon, back in 2022. We met in person in 2023 & exchanged plants🪴We've stayed friends over the years. We are working towards similar community building goals, in separate areas of the island. Ideally, would love to have a full food security, localized food systems 'spine', running West-East/South-North, across #VancouverIsland.
Jeff lives up island with his wife & kids. He also works in #nonprofit #FoodSecurity & #environmental #stewardship. He works for #Greenways #LandTrust in #CampbellRiver :

In this area, it's almost impossible to avoid #RustRot on #pear #trees. In fact, many of us joke that you can identify pear trees by looking for rust rot. Not to worry because it doesn't affect fruit production & it's mostly an esthetics issue. The fruits will still grow & mature with rust rot on foliage.

Rex Welland was a longtime local resident who loved collecting lots of #HeritageApple species. He spent a lifetime, collecting cuttings & grafting to grow in his large backyard. He donated this land, which was his backyard, as part of #LandConservancy agreement with the Town of View Royal to keep it as a heritage orchard for the community to steward & share.
There's 125 heritage #apple species growing there.

At #WellandCommunityOrchard they have a wall of #BeeCondos for #NativeBees / #pollinators 🐝💗🐝
These tiny homes are used by #BlueOrchardMasonBees & #LeafcutterBees & #SandWasps & some other native bees.Honeybees provide us with honey & beeswax but they aren't native here.
#VancouverIsland is home to at least 30 different native bee species. Almost all of these native bees are solitary.
