Mealworms and veggies help each other grow Mealworm frass helps our veggie production and veggies are nutritious for our mealworms. Here’s one lucky guy who gets to enjoy the brussel sprouts (a cool weather crop) still growing in our urban garden
So pleased to provide TWC @torontowildlifecentre with ~40,000 mealworms this fall! To cap off the season, we’ve also rounded up our last bit of kale for TWC patients TWC does so much to help preserve wildlife, which is why we think they are awesome! Please support wildlife rescue in your area!

Our pollinator plant project was rewarding because we got to support mental health by improving green spaces and to preserve natural ecosystems at the same timeMany thanks to Nature Canada @naturecanada_ for their support via a Young Nature Leader Grant to provide beautiful native Ontario pollinator plants for schools, long-term care homes, and communities organizations serving vulnerable populations
We have harvested seeds from several pollinator plants, such as black-eyed Susan, milkweed, and wild bergamot. We look forward to wintersowing these seeds to help keep this project going! With the recent freezing temps, another growing season has ended for us! What a busy year it has been!
With our Seeds That Feed urban farming initiative, we were happy to have to put together 600 lbs of vegetables for Feed the Need in Durham @ftndurham At a time when reliance on food banks in the GTA has increased by over 50%, the work of organizations like FTND has become increasingly vital. We appreciate all their efforts. Our Seeds That Feed initiative was made possible by our Sprout Ideas Fellow Grants by TakingITGlobal. Check out www.sproutideas.org for more details on the program and ways you can get involved in supporting youth-led social innovation. Many thanks to @TIGSproutIdeas generously supporting our vegetable gardening project to support vulnerable community members @TIGSproutIdeas @LeadersToday #CanadaServiceCorps #LeadersToday |
