7.4: Enhancing the local values chain with community gardens feat. Doug Jones

In this episode, Ariel interviews Doug Jones from Waterloo Region Community Garden Network, and he discusses about how the Network was started, what it does, and the benefits of gardening for the health and wellbeing not only for you but for your entire community. We discuss gleaning, food insecurity, access to land, and much more; this is an episode you’re going to want to listen to, especially if rising cost of food and food security are concerns for you these days.

I (Ariel) have included some links to the local organizations he mentions, as well as some that expand on some of the topics we discussed, which you can check out in the YouTube description or on our blog.

I've been absorbed in #crowscommoms my project with @Brynn to transition 12 acres of private land into #commonland .

The spaces that we aim to build will be #collectivelyowned and center #care and #disability

The #commoning house will include art studios, a #communitykitchen , an accessible bathroom, and dining. Connected to a network of "sleeping houses" which are spacious wood stove heated "cottages" with a bed + bath.

This is England.
The bare earth washing away as run off, as wildlife flees the monocultured plough. Meanwhile the barbed wire stifles access, and protects the privileged. Guardians of the countryside my arse.
