Stratford Urban Farming Experiment

There was a Meet and Greet at Revel Cafe for the Stratford Urban Farming Experiment last night.

Homeowners can offer part of their property to be used for planting vegetables.  Volunteers will plant, weed, harvest and learn.  The resulting vegetables will be shared among the homeowners, volunteers and local food banks.

It’s such a great idea and everyone there was so excited.  We’ve offered our backyard.  Heather will be by to take a look on Friday

For more information, you can check out their website here, like them on Facebook here or follow them on Twitter here.

Paparazzi (sort of)

There was a sparrow perched at the very top of the building. But he flew away. Obviously, he was tired of being stalked by the press.

The Old Shed

The buildings by the rail yards look abandoned. The sounds of early morning activity tell us otherwise.

The Weekly Breakfast

Our friend Anna Atkinson came to the market with us this morning. 

Then we came back to our house for french toast and bacon and lots and lots of coffee round the kitchen table.

Autumn Colours

In established neighbourhoods with older trees, the autumn leaves make for a beautiful tunnel of colour to walk through and photograph.
