    This is perfect timing for me Cory. I've planted pollinator flowers, bee balm, echinacea, etc., herbs & grown some miniature onions & potatoes in my city (Toronto) front yard . It's a small space covered by a maple tree, so sunlight is an issue & the soil is like dust, even the grass doesn't grow. So, I intend to create netted planters/raised beds, which will also keep the squirrels, etc. at bay. I'd like to grow Indigenous vegetables & Indigenous medicinal plants, of which I currently know little. I'm attempting to live off ODSP, so it'll all be done on a shoe-string, grand plans, but no funds, so up for collaborative projects. keep up the inspirational work sir - good soil = good earth = regeneration + sustainability!

      Cheers! One of my favourite mantras springs to mind: 'Be a lantern, be a rescue boat, be a ladder, and when you leave home be a shepherd' Rumi
