It's from my friend, Jeff, whom I originally met off of Mastodon, back in 2022. We met in person in 2023 & exchanged plants🪴We've stayed friends over the years. We are working towards similar community building goals, in separate areas of the island. Ideally, would love to have a full food security, localized food systems 'spine', running West-East/South-North, across #VancouverIsland.
Jeff lives up island with his wife & kids. He also works in #nonprofit #FoodSecurity & #environmental #stewardship. He works for #Greenways #LandTrust in #CampbellRiver :

This shows some of the work they've done at Maple Park Community Garden in partnership with #Strathcona Regional District. They acquired that land to steward/grow, earlier this year 💚👩‍🌾👨‍🌾👏

A great piece by Ella McSweeney on the campaign to make local rural roads into 'Rothar Roads,' accessible for all. ❤️

"These roads are essentially natural greenways with hedgerows overflowing with wildflowers which we can see and experience in a different way."

Thanks to everybody who supported my #Interrail trip to the #DH2025 conference in #Lisbon, #Portugal.

I have good news: Yesterday, on the train to #Madrid I met #bicycle activists. Easily recognizable by t-shirts with #Pedallibre or similar. These guys really know about #trafficpolitics. They assured me that the fast speed #train #Madrid-#Lisbon will come 2030 for the football WC. #greenways
