As the quarantine started to open up in mid-May, we have been able to start planting gardens across the city! Without knowing what the harvest season will bring, we will only seed vegetables that have one harvest and have to be cooked; such as potatoes, beets, celeriac, and flowers. Each garden is getting cultivated and planted by . the Grow team, with the hope that we can support food security in each neighborhood.\u00a0 Garlic is popping up from last fall\u2019s planting, and many of the herb beds are looking healthy thanks to help from Herbalists Without Borders volunteers.[\/vc_column_text]
