I'm so excited to show growers how we are using a new kind of growing media in the London Food Bank at the Canadian Greenhouse Conference #ldnont

At the 🇨🇦London food bank we have 14 raised beds grown by different people like a tiny community garden, last night somebody did an aggressive harvest in most beds breaking branches and uprooting complete plants, the worst part is that the produce was left there and spoiled. #ldnont

Today Ilana from Growing Chefs stopped by the London Food Bank to donate almost 100 pounds of fresh produce grown at the wsib garden. That garden looks awesome!

That looks so awesome 🚙 soapbox Derby!!!
What a day in SOHO for the first Soapbox Derby! Congrats to 9-year-old Xavier Soares, junior division champ—he raced with heart. And a special shout out to his proud mom—you’ve clearly raised a star.

Events like this show what community spirit is all about

So Sorry for the lack of audio editing skills, I'm working on it.

The Wsib community garden is fenced-in and getting ready to grow, new volunteer opportunities soon to come.

WSIB ontario is coming to London and they decided to create garden for the community, what a wonderful idea!
Growing Chefs is taking care of the Gardens with the collaboration of the London Food Bank, here is the first day of installation of a fence to protect the garden. Stay tuned for more updates

President Gabriel Boric of Chile posted an image of his official state dinner on Japan, with a Pikachu theme food.
Boric also said he unfortunately couldn't get the ending of Hunter X Hunter from Togashi.

What's not to like about strawberry spinach, native to north America, edible leafs and strawberry looking fruits and also if you forgot your make up bag it can be use to add color to your lips 💋

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Yesterday we worked hard on cleaning up the aftermath of the Strom that hit Southwestern Ontario, we lost a greenhouse used to host our clients and a tree branch that fell over our fence.

At the back of the greenhouse we setup a greenwall, it uses the footprint of 30 regular pots, but since it grows up (a 3rd dimension), its grows up to 400 plants.... and looks awesome 💚
