Hello fellow gardeners,
We hope you are having a lovely July, despite the strange hot and cold weather we’ve been having. It has been fun watching your gardens finally sprout fruit, veggies and flowers over the past couple of weeks.
Here are a couple of garden updates and opportunities for July.
It might not feel like it yet, but now is the time to start thinking about what plants and veggies you want to be eating as fall rolls in. This blog post by West Coast Seeds is a guide for starting seeds so you can continue eating home-grown veggies throughout fall and winter.
VANCOUVER COMMUNITY FRIDGE PROJECT
We thought we would remind you of this fabulous initiative in case you have some extra food to spare…
The Vancouver Community Fridge Project aims to combat food insecurity and decrease food waste by encouraging our communities to take part in laterally-directed mutual aid, starting with providing free, safe, non-policed, accessible and nutritious foods through community fridges and pantries.
The Vancouver Community Fridge Project is a great opportunity to give back to the community by sharing some of the delicious fresh food that you grow with neighbours and community members. If you are interested in donating to the Community Fridge Project, check out their list of fridges and find a location that works for you!
