Last week, DIGA visited Queen Mary Community Garden on the North Shore as part of a developing collaboration with the North Shore Community Garden Society.

The visit focused on exploring accessibility needs and opportunities to make the garden more accessible for people with disabilities.

We're glad to connect with community organizations interested in creating more inclusive gardening spaces and sharing DIGA's experience in accessible gardening.

We look forward to seeing how this collaboration develops!

We hope to welcome Brynne back again next year.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the GF Strong Courtyard Garden for an afternoon of learning about BC's native bees and the important role they play in our gardens and ecosystems.

A special thank you to Kristen from the Native Bee Society of BC for sharing her knowledge and practical tips, and to everyone who took part. It was wonderful to welcome several new participants and spend time learning and connecting together.
