Hope you’re all hanging in there and finding ways to connect with community and enjoy the outdoors, like Willow & Lune. Info coming soon on Series 2 of Rooted in Community Online.

If you haven’t been listening in on this lovely local podcast, we suggest you tune in! I had the pleasure of talking with Maggie about a few of our favourite things (bonus points for anyone who can guess the analogy I offered up to explain how intoxicating balsam poplar buds are!), and about the Rooted in Community Online Gathering series. Thanks to Maggie for inviting us on the show and to all of you for engaging in community in the meaningful ways we are able to in this time. ❤️

On the farm. On a boulevard. In a backyard. Hoping you can follow the lead of these ladies and fly the coop to plant your bare feet on the earth. Just follow physical distancing protocol better than them!

This weekend, we’re working on getting a rain barrel water catchment system set up at the coop. Stay tuned for updates...

During this time of concerns over the food supply and decreased trips to the grocery store, we can all benefit from not only extending the life of of our produce, but also transforming it to give our bodies a nutrient and probiotic boost. .

Join us to hang out with @ashley.pharazyn.hc, of My Quaint Traditions, over at our community space on Zoom for a fermentation workshop. Learn the art of fermentation and transform those veggies!

It’s your pandemic and you can cry if you want to. Scream if you want to. Sleep if you want to. Watch TV if you want to. Laugh if you want to. Love if you want to. Learn if you want to. Whatever you need in this time. We don’t want to contribute to a culture of pressure to be productive. We do want to cultivate opportunities for community connection and while we’re at it, a chance to learn some fun stuff. If you feel like it!

Tomorrow’s vegetable fermentation workshop (Sunday, April 19) wraps up Series 1 of the Rooted in Community Online Gatherings (hope to see you there - link in bio). As we pause to organize Series 2, we invite you to listen in to our Rooted Podcast episodes, starting with our chat with Tom Nagy of River City Mushrooms (@nagthompson). He is currently selling mushroom spawn and kits and we think this is a very approachable spring project if you are looking for something simple and fun to focus on. It’s also more than just a fun little project. It’s a food-security project. A share the goodness with your family, friends, neighbours project (the learning and the mushrooms 😉). .

You can find our podcasts on iTunes - Rooted Podcast. Also check out our chat with @beeprojectca and keep an ear out for our latest episode with @loafandhoney coming out this week!
