Did you know squirrels love to eat kale, especially curly kale? 🥦🐿️ Harvested ~12 lbs of kale for the squirrels at @torontowildlifecentre this month 😀 We appreciate everything TWC does to save our wildlife!  While mammals are sensitive to chili pepper spice, birds are completely immune!🌶️🐦 In fact, they help spread peppers by eating them & excreting their seeds! 😀 We were thrilled to put together 46 lbs peppers 🌶️, cukes 🥒, tomatoes 🍅, potatoes 🥔, and beets ❤️ for Feed the Need in Durham @ftndurham early this month! 😄  Did you know biggest is not best when it comes to zucchini's? The most flavourful zukes are small- to medium in size 🥒👩🍳 Special thanks to Team Copeland for contributing awesome zucchinis!  Sweet beets are quite the treat for our mealworms! ❤️🐛 We were excited to support @torontowildlifecentre last month with ~13,000 mealworms 😀 They help so many wild animals! Please support wildlife rescue in your area 🐦🐺🦉  Many thanks to Women's College Hospital @wchospital for their recent contribution of used pens and markers. Special thanks to Amanda Gosse for her amazing support! 🖍️😀🖊️These will go to @staplescanada for recycling at @terracycleca 😄  Cherry tomatoes at various stages of ripening 🍅 Ripe tomatoes last 5-7 d at room temperature. Then, you can refrigerate them for 3-4 d to extend their life. Move back to room temperature for 1-2 d to rejuvenate flavour before eating 😋  Baby cucumbers 🥒😀🏵️The inside of a cucumber can be 10-20°F cooler than the ambient temperature. That's why we say “cool as a cucumber.” 🌡️🧊 We were so happy to put together 11 lbs zukes & cukes🥒, kale 🥦, and chilis🌶️ for @ftndurham this week.  Strawberries are a sweet summer treat for our mealworms! 🍓🐛  Potatoes coming a long nicely! 🙂🥔🌿 Thank you to #RisingYouth, @TakingITGlobal, the Government of Canada, and Canada Service Corps for generously supporting our gardening project to help fight hunger in our community.  |
