First year gardening project in Moose Cree First Nation has been a wonderful success. Looking forward to harvesting with community members on Thursday!
Nothing better than working with families come pick potatoes from the little community garden. Just under 80 pounds and a whole lot of fun for the kids. Bigger and better next year...

In Moose Factory we planted potatoes, carrots and onions in the Healthy Babies Healthy Children's garden and the community garden. Great day of planting with Tony the local food developer, Vikki a volunteer, Cindy a professor from the University of Alberta and Celeste a student.
Without a doubt, the best part of our job as Professors is being able to provide students with enriching experiences. So proud of University of Ottawa student Celeste Ferreira working with the Moose Cree First Nation on their local food initiatives.
Nearing the end of my trip to Moose Factory. A lot of hard work, but it was great restoring the Healthy Babies Healthy Children garden, the community garden across from the Elders’ Complex, and working with community members building their own gardens. Great work team!
Before and after photos of restoring a garden space in Moose Factory First Nation for the Healthy Babies Healthy Children program to provide fresh vegetables to young mothers in the community.
First day of planting in Wapekeka hoop house. Grade 7 and 8 students voted on carrots, peas, lettuce and some beautiful nasturtiums to brighten things up.
