We are thankful for the funding from Feeding Communities that helped to facilitate our first potato donation to the Windsor Food Bank. This initiative is set to continue all year, with the goal of reducing waste through the redistribution of potatoes and other vegetables to those in need.

We’ve been Empowering Windsor Youth at the Station Learning Farm. 🌱

Education works best when it’s personalized and connected to each youth’s strengths — not one-size-fits-all. At the Learning Farm, local youth from WHEC, EDGE on Employment, and Adult High School are thriving in a supportive, confidence-building environment, achieving real successes and discovering their full potential.
By placing young people in the right environment, and with the support of our amazing community partners and other local organizations — we’re helping them blossom, grow, and succeed in ways that truly resonate with their needs.

Here’s to building spaces that meet youth where they are and unlock the incredible potential within each of them! 🌟

The Station Learning Farm mural project is currently underway due to the generous support of the WHUCHB community grant. This grant facilitates hands-on experience for young creatives from The Edge on Employment program in Windsor through collaboration with a local artist. Not only does this initiative refine critical skills requisite for careers in the arts, but it also fosters teamwork, community engagement, and mental wellness. Upon nearing completion, a dedicated section of the mural will showcase the personal anecdotes and reflections of Station Learning Farm visitors, celebrating community belonging.

The Station Learning Farm is starting to take shape. This week, we finalized plans for a vibrant mural, generously supported by the Wellness Fund and Nova Scotia Health, which will be brought to life by talented youth from the Edge on Employment Windsor. Meanwhile, students from WHEC kindly lent their skills to assemble tables for our community kitchen, a hub for food education and connection for schools and community members.

The Station Learning Farm is teaching valuable skills and nourishing communities. The youth from the Edge on Employment program in Windsor have created a truly innovative product, Hardcore Apple Jelly, which will be available for purchase at the Yuletide Market on December 11th. This remarkable jelly is crafted from rescued apples from local farms, carefully strained to perfection, and infused with a unique blend of spices, and the magic of Chef Justin. The result is a deliciously authentic taste of apple pie, showcasing the power of determination and creativity. Even the apple cores are repurposed as nutritious feed for farm animals, exemplifying a commendable zero-waste approach. This inspiring initiative embodies the perfect blend of farm-fresh quality and environmental responsibility. Now that’s Hardcore! 💀 🍎
