Month: January 2025

Announcing our new Spring Fundraising Raffle! We’re calling it the Whole Hog Raffle, since our Grand Prize is a freezer full of 1/4 beef, and the second, Early Bird prize, is one whole hog. And yes, our vegetarian and vegan friends can opt for the cash equivalent, $2300 and $1000 respectively. Tickets are $50 each and we’re only printing 400 of them, so odds are pretty sweet. The Grand Prize draw will take place May 3rd at 1:00 pm at the Mac Community Garden, and the Early Bird Prize will be drawn on March 20th (the Spring Equinox) at 1:00 pm, same location. You can buy your ticket right here.

Get news on upcoming workshops and events, and other pertinent food security and local gardening news and issues.

We’re adding more workshops to our spring schedule all the time, including the exciting “Food Forest Planning” session on Feb 28th with Farmer Brown, and a Food Literacy class at the Bradley Centre, w/ Monica Bradbury. Our mission is to create food literacy and food security education opportunities in the region, so we can all be better versed in growing, preserving and producing our own local foods. Keep an eye on our spaces.
