We had a nice workshop today and lots of drawing with the burning pens as well as finishing off the last panel for the standing boxes. Thank you to all of our committed workshop participants!
We gathered for our final session on Permaculture and explored the topic of Food As Medecine and Superfoods. There was a lot to cover! Thanks to Gabriel Pliska of Frisch Farms and VACS for leading the session. Some superfood highlights included: Yarrow Kale Swiss Chard Lemonbalm Lupine Calendula Lovage Chamomile Echanacea Garlic
The kids enrolled in our licensed Out-Of-School care program also got involved in the process of embellishing the planter box panels. the younger ones used the salt-dough method, while the others used the wood burning tool. Here are a few works in progress.
Good news: we received a soil donation from the City of Vancouver's Social Policy Department. Bad news: it was delivered far from our site! With shovels, wheel barrows and muscle, we managed to fill a few over the course of Sunday morning.
