Event Description
The Purple Thistle Radical Gardeners are having a celebration and open 'house' at our gardens in industrial East Strathcona on Saturday, May 21 from 12-3pm. Come join us for food, song, and to find out how to get involved! We're youth driven, horizontal, and just starting to put our plans for a food forest in our neighborhood into motion - 7 layers of edibles and restored wetland habitat on degraded land bordering on the train tracks. We've got bees, worms, crops, public planters, and many a project on the go, we're growing and there's so much room to join in!
Hope to see ya out on the streets, one way or the other -
