This #FirstNations horticulturist Indigenizes plant spaces in B.C.
#ShaylaChalifoux sub-consults for landscape architects on incorporating #NativePlants
Edzi'u Loverin · CBC News · Posted: Nov 14, 2025
Excerpt: "According to the province of B.C., plant biodiversity in #BritishColumbia is unmatched in Canada, with at least 2,500 native vascular plant species, in addition to thousands of lichens, mosses and fungi.
"Individuals can help support the land by planting native plants in pots on their balconies and gardens, said Chalifoux.
" 'Why would you plant a native plant here? Because host nations have a relationship with that, or this specific plant is a host plant for a larva, a native butterfly, that needs to eat only this plant to survive,' said Chalifoux.
" 'The land is hurting. One way we can help the land is by incorporating native plants.'
"Chalifoux said though things are changing, not many municipalities have policies to ensure a percentage of native plants are included in city landscaping.
"#CBCIndigenous asked the City of #Vancouver if it had any policies around the number of native plants required to be planted in urban planning.
"A City of Vancouver spokesperson said in a statement that the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation is working to increase native plants in #UrbanSpaces and considers a number of factors in planning, including maintenance, resilience, and canopy cover, and consults with local #FirstNations.
"A prime example of this is the addition of #PacificYew to the Stanley Park Restoration initiative, upon receiving feedback from local First Nations," said the statement.
"The city said it has also provided native plants for #EcologicalRestoration in Vancouver parks to non-profits and community groups that hold community planting events."

I'm at Handmade Expo in Vancouver, and I watched @michaellabbe demo Grain DDL.
An insanely useful tool for serialization formats (among other).

TIL I’m ambidextrous! I needed to slice potatoes for dinner and used my left hand for that.
I usually do things with my right because I’m right handed but today my wrist was like “nah, fam.”
Before slicing potatoes, i was handwriting the new mini posters for PurrEssence: Cozy Chats (formerly FediCollective)

I friend of mine is trying to start up a cafe where "builders" chill among each other.
The nature of the space would be — I'd imagine — similar to FUNK Coffee Bar in one of the Bentall buildings.
Then I looked up what it takes to get started.
Damn, George Giannakos of Revolver Coffee knew his stuff.
