Don’t miss it!!
This Saturday morning, Deep Roots Food Hub will sell off produce remaining in its unique off-grid root cellar at 230 Davidson’s Side Road. Designed specifically to hold up to 70,000 lbs of root vegetables and other produce like cabbage and onions, it’s the “anchor” facility for DRFH, an organization that intends to make Canadians and the world, food secure….one rutabaga and one local food system, at a time.
Other than organic rutabagas and potatoes, and some even grown regeneratively, there will be lots of opportunities to find out how DRFH and sister organizations like ExerFarm, intend to achieve food and climate security, and better nutrition as well. You’ll also listen to an expert on the soil biome who is creating a Permaculture Food Forest and a beautiful “Mandala” garden on site. There will be a Ford F150 Lightning truck providing electric power. You can view the root cellar and find out how it works on only a few hundred watts of solar power.
Who knows! You might even pick up a few tricks to make your own backyard garden more sustainable and more able to provide some of those delicious micronutrients you might be missing. There will be prizes, and some activities for the kids.
It’s this Saturday, May 13, 9 am to 12 pm… See you there!
