May 29, 30 - Heirloom Plant and Garden Weekend at the Upper Canada Village

June 1 - Hida Manns comes to talk on Organic Agriculture as a Buffer to Climate Change. It will be held Tuesday, June 1st at 7pm in the Grey Room at the Bronson Centre, 211 Bronson Avenue. Contact Canadian Organic Growers (or myself) for more information.

June 5 - Fletcher Wildlife Garden Native Plant Sale from 9:30am to 12:30pm

Just Foods was a source for many of these events. They are holding 'Food for All: Join Food Action Planning Conversations.' Also check out their page on Community / Allotment Gardens for those of you who need more space. They also have a newsletter with interesting events about food, farms and gardening. This is where you can find the Buy Local guide.

Cool Stumbles

Tree Nuts is about promoting nut growing in Canada. I just stumbled across it and it seems to contain lots of interesting information relevant to the area.
