DESCRIPTION:The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Education Community Garden is a small urban green sp
 ace adjacent to the Education building\, where we seek to experiment with 
 permaculture and outdoor- and garden-based learning\, while creating a spa
 ce for creativity\, community-building\, collective action and well-being.
  In the month of June\, the Garden team is organizing a series of exciting
  events\, such as weekly gardening sessions and workshops. Please find mor
 e info about the programmation in the attached calendar.\n\nLocated on the
  terrace adjacent to the Education building and accessible via Peel Street
 \, the garden is a small but cozy space with outdoor seating\, a few plant
 ers and a couple of in-ground garden beds. Our vision is to make the garde
 n into a green oasis in an urbanized university campus\; a space for veget
 ation\, community and learning opportunities to flourish.The story of the 
 garden:\n\nThe ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Education Garden was established in 2015 as an outdo
 or learning space\, located between the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Coach House and Duggan Hous
 e. The objective of the garden was to promote sustainable development thro
 ugh garden-based learning\, and a lot of cool stuff happened\, such as her
 balism and food production workshops\, art-making events and film screenin
 gs.\n\nBut then … Covid-19\, a turnover in leadership and construction pla
 ns happened. In 2022\, Prof. Blane Harvey and his lab were approached to t
 ransition the space to its current location\, giving us an exciting opport
 unity to reinvent and reimagine the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Education Garden.Plans for the 
 garden:\n\nOur objective with the garden is to design an outdoor learning 
 space\, where we can experiment together with nature- and garden-based ped
 agogies while creating opportunities for food production\, creativity\, co
 mmunity-building\, collective action and well-being.\n\nExamples of plants
  cultivated in the garden include both perennials (such as raspberries\, b
 lueberries\, rhubarb\, mint\, etc.) and annuals (such as spinach\, peas\, 
 tomatoes\, peppers\, etc.). The food produced (not in very big quantities 
 since the garden space is mostly experimental) is available to the communi
 ty of gardeners that make this place thrive\, but also to anyone curious t
 o taste the fruits of the garden.\n\nInterested in getting involved with t
 he community garden? Everyone is welcome!\n\nThings you can help with:\n\n
