I took my client out to Welland Community Orchard & wheeled him around the community orchard park. He had never been there before & loved seeing everything there. It was a lovely post-lunch outing.

These are some of the purple flowering broccoli plants that we grow in our raised bed food gardens at the community orchard park.

Ella & I will be attending #BartholomewCollective & #FoodNotBombs event with free food, music, and community organizing 2-4pm on Saturday, March 28 at Red Cedar Cafe (1900 Douglas Street). I'm not eating there but taking home some food. We will be representing LifeCycles Project Society at this local grassroots, food security/food equity & community building/connecting event ✌️

My first 2026 #strawberry #flower has emerged. Lots of flowerbuds are getting ready to bloom. After the blooms, come some of my early, sweet, homegrown #strawberries 🍓
This is in a large garden bed in the side yard - there's thousands of strawberry plants in that bed 😃
We love eating strawberries so we grow lots of them. I have 3 different varieties growing in our front, side & backyards & 2 strawberry planters on our back deck too.

@urlyman want to find out more for upcoming handbook on Food and Water but seems like nitrogen and phosphorus could be returned to soil at the same time as water use (and pollution) are reduced... Pre-water closets, is that what happened anyway? Obvious need to avoid disease transmission (yuck factor will be related:)
