My #LittleFreeLibrary has been freshly restocked with some new books, more community & book lovers & environmentalist stickers, rad anarchist zines & a few other extra awesome freebies! My LFL is listed on Google maps under Dino Books Little Free Library. I run the only #anarchist LFL in the area 🤘

One of my newer, younger neighbours (my Mom & her Mom became friends) came by to talk to me yesterday. She asked if I'm open to doing a brief presentation/mini workshop for our neighbourhood community in early June. I've agreed to teach a free frugal gardening mini workshop & will give away some free supplies for newbies to get started well. I pitched starting a neighbourhood seeds sharing library too because many people avoid the downtown area so they don't visit Victoria Seed Library, which is in the Central Victoria public library. She's keen on having a smaller community seeds library & is working on writing a community grant for that & for us to do more neighbourhood community building work.

It's wonderful to be approached by a neighbour, who is wanting to actively collaborate on closer community building, right in our 'hood. Community grassroots collaborations sparks joy for me 😃💗

I'm getting some resources this week, to put together several free #GarryOakEcosystem #nature #zines to give away in my #LittleFreeLibrary all through this Spring & Summer.
It's part of my ongoing personal efforts to boost #NatureEducation / #NatureTeachings - right from the front of our home; so more people can learn about amazing local #biodiversity in our local #ecosystems 🙂
People who learn more about nature, will learn to love, respect & protect nature life systems 💚☘️

I found some volunteer helpers at the community connecting event, co-hosted by Bartholomew Collective & Food Not Bombs #VictoriaBC chapter - to help me build more free community sharing boxes to put in front of our house. One for non-perishable foods. One for arts/crafts supplies. Another for seed sharing.
