One of my newer, younger neighbours (my Mom & her Mom became friends) came by to talk to me yesterday. She asked if I'm open to doing a brief presentation/mini workshop for our neighbourhood community in early June. I've agreed to teach a free frugal gardening mini workshop & will give away some free supplies for newbies to get started well. I pitched starting a neighbourhood seeds sharing library too because many people avoid the downtown area so they don't visit Victoria Seed Library, which is in the Central Victoria public library. She's keen on having a smaller community seeds library & is working on writing a community grant for that & for us to do more neighbourhood community building work.

It's wonderful to be approached by a neighbour, who is wanting to actively collaborate on closer community building, right in our 'hood. Community grassroots collaborations sparks joy for me 😃💗

I'm getting some resources this week, to put together several free #GarryOakEcosystem #nature #zines to give away in my #LittleFreeLibrary all through this Spring & Summer.
It's part of my ongoing personal efforts to boost #NatureEducation / #NatureTeachings - right from the front of our home; so more people can learn about amazing local #biodiversity in our local #ecosystems 🙂
People who learn more about nature, will learn to love, respect & protect nature life systems 💚☘️

I'll be at 2 different workplaces tomorrow for two different local nonprofits.

LifeCycles Project team is having their jam making work party all day, out of Mustard Seed Distribution HQ kitchen. I'll be there most of tomorrow afternoon.

In the morning, I'll be helping out with another Iyé Creative Collective event 👇

Seeds and Synergies is a gathering that aims to bring together community members, growers, farmers, and farmers to be, facilitators, and partners from racialized groups to reflect on the role of Culturally Relevant Crops and Land Access in shaping the access of these groups to locally grown, healthy and nutritious foods, education, employment opportunities, income, and belonging to the land, to themselves and their communities.

For the past five years, Iyé Creative has been working with community members and local farmers to learn about cultural crops – plant relatives that carry deep meaning for our food, health, and traditions on Coast Salish lands. We’ve also been pushing for fairer land policies so more people can grow the foods and medicines that matter to them.

Cultural foods aren’t just products on a market, or grocery store shelf. They’re living connections that tie us to land, spirit, and each other.

#LifecyclesProjectSociety #FruitTreeProject Update.

This year, we have harvested over 63,000 lbs of fruit! Of that, almost 32,000 lbs of Grade A fruit has been donated to the community, to over 70 community service agencies throughout the Greater Victoria Area. Our tree stewards have kept 4,500 lbs, and our amazing team of 191 Harvest Leads and Pickers have taken 13,000 lbs home. 

What about the other 13,500 lbs you ask? 

Made up of B-Grade, we have processed just over 7500 lbs into juice and jam. Some of the fruit is always C-Grade (compost). To date, we have composted just under 6000 lbs of fruit - while some of this has gone to our friends at Community Composting, the vast majority has gone to a local pig farmer.

We are proud to say no fruit has gone into the landfill!

Since the beginning of this year, The Bartholomew Collective has been forming a relationship of mutual aid with Sara Abu Rida. Sara is a dear friend of ours from Gaza, doing everything she can to keep her loved ones alive. Her family includes her mother, nieces and nephews, extended family, and community. Since the escalation of the genocide, her family home has been destroyed by bombs, and her family has been displaced numerous times. Amongst rampant starvation, sickness, unending violence, and the complete destruction of Palestine's economy, Sara and her family have a constant need for funds.

Volunteers working on mulching at #WellandCommunityOrchard. We got a big pile of fabulous, mostly cedar wood mulch from a local sawmill.

We filled up 11 boxes with freshly picked #GrannySmith #apples yesterday. Me, Hannah & 2 volunteers went out on a small pick(1 tree). An excellent harvest gleaning day - for Hannah's last day with LifeCycles.

Great harvest pick of #GrannySmith #apples today. Granny Smith apples are currently one of the most expensive apples in local stores with average pricing of $2.99/lb. The apples we gleaned from one tree, were almost all perfect apples - very few with damage on them 🍏😃
These will be greatly appreciated by many food insecure folks around our community 👍💗
