Car Free Day - Commercial Drive
Last Sunday June 20th SPEC hosted a booth on Commercial Drive to tell more people about our organization's work. We chatted with many many folks about organic urban agriculture, renewable energy and waste reduction. SPEC shared our booth with Earth Heart - a new endeavor by Gareth Ward who builds cedar container boxes among other food garden services.
It was a very busy and very inspiring day. Thank you to all who stopped by to say hello!

June 1st Gardens Update
Spring is in full force and all the hard work and planning from the previous months is truly paying off.
School Gardens
Students from a nearby school recently brought seedlings they started in their classroom to plant on our rooftop container garden.
Rooftop Garden
Fava beans are flowering on the roof!
Lettuce is harvestable!
Tomato seedlings are in! (Started in Carole's backyard greenhouse)
Cambie Square Communal Garden
New lovely signage care of Jodi Mayne!
We've got bees! Mason bees have moved in to our mason condo (thanks EYA!) you can see they've filled the holes with mud.
