Missing 3 volunteers who had to leave at noon. Some of our weekend warriors who volunteered for our fruits chopping work party at Mustard Seed Distribution HQ, today. We cut & bagged up a LOT of fruits! We are making value added products to sell, with these bagged cut fruits.
As a nonprofit, we need to sell some items to fund our community food security work. All sale profits go back into funding our programs/projects.

Our annual #LifecyclesProject #CommunitySharing Day is right around the corner on September 27th 🍏🍎🍐🍇

It will be hosted once again at #WellandCommunityOrchard from 11-3pm.
You're welcome to bike, or to try your luck at getting one of the parking spots. If you do not have mobility concerns or require transport of things such as strollers & walkers, consider avoiding trying to park right at the orchard. There's some street parking near the orchard as well, we just ask that you be concious of the neighbours. This year we will have a free shuttle bus from our warehouse at 808A Viewfield Rd out to Welland Orchard to alleviate the limited parking. It will make the following trips:

Leaves Lifecycles office:
-11am
-12pm
-1pm
-2pm

Leaves Welland
-11:30am
-12:30pm
-1:30pm
-3pm

Come out for a family friendly day of celebrating the harvest! We'll be giving away plenty of fruit, pressing fresh apple cider, our heritage apple tasting table will be back & we will have a #seedbomb making table as well as a #ScavengerHunt for the kids.

I hope to see you there!
Please bring a small bag if you'd like to take home some free fruits that we'll be giving to folks who want some 😊

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.
