Our workshop on DIY Natural Cleaning Products was featured in Concordia's The Link newspaper.
We'll be offering this workshop again on December 2nd at P3 Permaculture. Check out the Facebook event for more info.
We are excited to present our first workshop on Food Justice at the Concordia Greenhouse. Food Justice Wednesday, October 21st, 5:30-7:00pm at the Concordia Greenhouse Free - donation accepted. What are some of the ethical questions that surround what we eat on a daily basis? We’ll talk about some of the many ways that racism, sexism, classism, and accessibility shape the gap between who grows “healthy” food and who gets to eat it. The discussion will also focus on how we can incorporate food justice into how we garden, eat, and advocate. Our next workshop will be at the Concordia Greenhouse.
Preserving the Harvest Wednesday, September 30th from 5:30-7pm at the Concordia Greenhouse. Many folks think that living in Quebec makes it impossible to eat local food all year round. Actually, with a little planning, you can eat food grown around Montreal throughout the long winter. In this workshop, you’ll learn the basics of several ways to preserve food, including canning, freezing, drying, and fermentation. We will be making dill pickles together. $10 for the workshop only, $15 includes your own jar of pickles! The first 25 participants will be admitted. Shona from Le TinyHomestead will be giving a workshop on canning at 6 pm on Thursday, August 13th at Le Milieu. In this workshop, we'll talk about what types of fruits and vegetables can be canned at home, and how to safely prepare them. You will have the opportunity to make and take home some preserves, based on what is seasonally available.
Check out more details on the Facebook event page and register for the workshop here. This event is offered by our friends at P3 Permaculture. It's been a busy few months at Le TinyHomestead! Our Urban Sustainability Skills series taught at Sustainable Concordia was super fun. Stay tuned for more workshops coming up!
