Beautiful growth in Menahqesk, Lisa Morris!!

🌱 Good morning, friends! 🌱

Reminder PULSE is closed today. I'll (Lisa) be at the Rainbow Park Community Garden this morning at 10am working in the PULSE pantry plots, and I'd love some company if you'd like to get your hands dirty!

Today's garden adventures include cultivating a few plots, planting tomatoes, and (my favourite part!) planting the third sister in our Three Sisters garden. 🌽🌻🫘

The corn and squash are already growing, and tucked in with them is a sunflower that one of the children from our Parent & Caregiver Chat gifted me. Today we'll be planting scarlet runner beans, which will climb the corn and sunflower while the squash spreads below. I love the story behind the Three Sisters planting, three plants working together and helping one another thrive. It feels like a pretty good reminder of what community looks like.

If you've been thinking about checking out the garden, today is a great day to stop by! No experience needed just bring yourself, and we'll grow a little food (and a little community) together.

🕙 Today at 10am and every Wednesday (weather permitting)
