Hey Wayfinder!

The WWS community Garden for first responders, military veterans, and their families living with PTSD injury has officially started being planted!

Here we have yellow beans, peas, cucamelon, and yellow squash! Our rhubarb plants are already almost 3 feet high and 4 feet wide and on the verge of taking over the garden beds that they are each in lol

Itโ€™s so amazing to see everything grow back that was in some of the beds last year and plant the new veggies that we will be able to help those in our demographic which we serve who may be struggling.

For more information, please contact by email info@ayfinderswellness.ca and we can let you know what we currently have available and book an appointment for pick up as things become ready to harvest. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿค—๐Ÿค—๐Ÿค—

Fingers crossed now that we have a fence around the garden as of the end of last season the deer will not annihilate the garden ๏ฟผ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๏ฟผ

Good morning Wayfinders!

We wanted to take a moment to say thank you SO MUCH to the Cochrane Activettes for their donation they recently provided for WWS so we could finally have the yard equipment we needed to do some of the serious work in maintaining the ranch house yard!!

Pic on the left is the nicest those hedges have looked along the bottom in a long while thanks to our new w**d whackerโ€ฆtop right pic is the very overgrown hedges that run along the side blocking the beautiful view across the creek. Thanks to our new battery powered chainsaw we have the start of being able to see the beautiful view again!! (There will be a large area left for our yard deer family as well) ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป
