Back in 2023, Sergei called saying he had excess produce to donate to the Food Bank. Today, he's still sharing.
With his recent donation, he has given a total of 1075 kg of fresh produce for our neighbours in need. Thank YOU!

#YEGGarden update: a handful of blossoms on the 'Early Gold' pear tree have opened and are being visited by tiny native pollinators. The multi-variety apple tree looks like it's not far behind. This weather is making all the trees wanna Do That Thing nearly simultaneously.
