Join our work parties every Sunday from 10 AM–1 PM.
We meet in the Nexway̓s wa lh7áy̓nexw(Transformed Life Garden) or šxʷqʷeləwən ct(One Heart One Mind Garden). The gardens are situated on the NW corner of the Britannia School grounds.

This is experiential hands-on learning; planting, watering, weeding, and harvesting as we care for the gardens. These Sunday Skill Sharing Parties provide an opportunity to learn and work together, so bring your friends and drop in.

No registration required — simply show up with enthusiasm and a green thumb. For more information, please email Ruth Elizabeth at [email protected] or call 604-718-5895.

This hands-on workshop offers a unique blend of land-based learning, literacy, and climate action. Participants will discover Bokashi composting—an effective method that uses beneficial
microbes to ferment food waste, including salmon scraps from summer processing, which traditional composting can’t handle. The event is organized by Collingwood Neighbourhood House in partnership with Ancestral Foodways Collective Society. No costs, everybody is welcome!
