A Little Seedy at Scadding Court
I'm sure everyone (myself included) is dreaming of the days to come where the sun is shining, all this silly ice melts and we replace those piles of dirty snow with green grass, fresh flowers and MY favourite - fruit and veggies straight out of the garden.
On March 17th, Food Share will be hosting an event at The Scadding Court Community Centre called Seedy Saturday.
This is the place to be if you are on the lookout to decorate your green space with unusual, heritage, organic vegetable, herb and flower seeds. Not only can you purchase seeds and neat gardening tools, you also have the opportunity to swap seeds with other nature loving gardeners.
Through their fundraising efforts Seeds of Diversity(a non-profit organization working to grow, propagate and distribute over 1500 varieties of seeds) are spreading the word about the importance of preserving Canada's genetic plant heritage.
Seedy Saturday runs from 10am-3pm, so stay for a little while because there will be workshops, an Eco Fair with various local environmental organizations and even some tasty treats! I'd say that this is a pretty good deal for a suggested donation of $2.00 and even though I only have my tiny 2 feet by 4 feet patch of gardening area, I think I may just give this green thumb thing a whirl.

Can the editor do something about the crimes to the english language in the form of apostrope usage which have become endemic here? It is extremely amateurish and embarassing and, while I expect to get pilloried for taking the time to lecture, detracts significantly from the reading exerience and impact of this site. Why should I take your point seriously when you haven't taken the time to effectively communicate it? Perhaps a staff field trip to an elementary school during a grammar lesson. I believe they cover apostrophe use in Grade 4.
A review:
's is a possessive. BlogTO's stunning array of grammatical errors.
s/es/s' are the plural form of singular nouns. BlogTO has many grammatically challenged writers.
The more you know...
Hey grammar-scout - I believe they also have a unit on Respecting Your Neighbours or at least a session with those lovely Conflict Resolution worksheets.
If you paid attention in that area, you'd learn that constructive criticism can be a positive and useful process.
Instead, your usual hurling of insults, petty commentary and sweeping generalizations about our the blog and bloggers just leave us ignoring you, and considering a ban on your rude comments... and we really don't want to do any of that.
You get a time-out instead.
Go sit in the corner.
