Nickel Belt and Sudbury MPs announce $57,000 for Sudbury Shared Harvest’s I-GROW program
Sudbury Shared Harvest was the recent recipient of $57,000 in funding to support the group’s efforts at regenerative planting that also links seniors and youth.
At the same time, they spotlighted a couple of New Horizons mini-projects in Coniston: an edible forest garden housed at the Coniston Community Garden and two pollinator gardens at that community’s French and English elementary schools. In Coniston, Shared Harvest and volunteers expanded an area of fruit trees and other edible, perennial plants by adding cherry, gooseberry, currant, haskap and strawberries, as wella as herbs and other ground-cover plants.
The I-GROW program has also resulted in garden beds being built at several daycare centres, another edible forest garden planted at the Louis Street housing complex, and a series of free workshops to be offered later this summer and fall.
