Woohoo! I'm so happy that #AbleSail #VictoriaBC has opened up their season early this year! It opens up on April 15 at one of our 2 locations! North Saanich Sidney Yacht Club location has registration open now 😁⛵️
I'll be back on the waters this Spring 🤩
I missed almost all of last season due to work commitments.#DisabledSailing #Martin16 #sailboat #SubdidizedRecreation #PeopleWithDisabilities #AbleSailCanada #Parasports #Inclusion #AdaptiveSports #AdaptiveSailing #SailorGirl #Sailboat #Boating #OakBay #YYJ #SailAway #VancouverIsland #VanIsle #PacificNorthwest #PNW #Ahoy

Over the past year, the #LifeCycles team has been taking a deep dive into reimagining what the #SeedLibrary can be. With the help of many dedicated volunteers, we’ve spent significant time sorting and organizing seeds, and we’re excited to share what’s coming next.
By the end of February, #seed #donation bins will be launched at each of #GreaterVictoriaPublicLibrary branches. The Seed Library at the Broughton branch in downtown Victoria, which will both collect and distribute seeds, is expected to be fully functional by March.
We are also shifting how #seeds are accessed at the #library to make them more #accessible and increase their reach. The Seed Library will function more like a Seed Box - prioritizing ease of access, because we believe that access to seeds—especially amid rising food costs—is an important part of local #foodsecurity.
Alongside this, we are planning to continue the Seed Library’s core work of growing out heirloom and locally adapted varieties so they remain accessible in our region. As these seeds become available, we will put these seeds into rotation in the Broughton Branch Seed Library.

We’re also planning two #SeedWorkshops this year — a beginner workshop in the spring and a more advanced workshop in the summer. More details coming soon!
#Volunteer opportunities - come help us!
We have two remaining seed-sorting shifts and we would love your help:
Monday, January 19, 10:00 am–12:00 pm
Monday, January 26, 1:00–3:00 pm
Shifts take place at our Esquimalt office (808 Viewfield Rd, Unit A). Snacks are provided! You can sign up through the Gleaning Hub under Join → Shifts

Took my Mohawk sister-friend, Ojistoh, out for her first sail. Gorgeous weather today & we had some nice breezes on the ocean ☺️⛵️💗

Party waves. Not really. So many boats were out today. These weren't as big as some other wake waves from powerboats. I couldn't film anything when those larger wakes hit us because I was busy angling sailboat to counter them.

I had a fantastic sail adventure today. Took my friend, Nadene, out for her first Martin 16 sailing experience. She loved it & took a ton of photos. We had fab winds on the waters today & I got to do a lot of keeling 😀 Fun time, on the ocean, on a gorgeous day!

My first sailing accident. Got caught on rocks. I was able to dislodge sailboat but waves kept pushing us back towards rocks.

Really #foggy morning, #sailing on the #ocean. I had Zorah, young lady from ASV/RVYC in passenger seat, manning the safety radio, while I #sailed us around waters. I practiced lots of tacking & jibing today.

Excellent 2nd #AdaptiveSailing session today! My instructor today, Kate, is very knowledgeable & keen to help me learn more so I can enter future Mobility Cup regattas. I manned sailboat for almost full session today & she gave me guidance only when needed. There was more breezes so we didn't need to be towed out or back. My next session is on August 4th 😊⛵️
Lunching with Mom on back deck before we get some gardening tasks done 👩🌾 Heading to the Indigenous Music Festival around 5:30pm 🎶🎵 Hampton Park is only 5 minutes from our home & starts at 6pm.
