Announcing the TreeMobile/Orchard People 6th annual ECGG Winners!

The awards we are able to grant this year have been restricted due to the (ridiculous) community gardens directive. We are therefore awarding the grants this year as follows:

Modified Forest Awards:

• Everdale Environmental Learning Centre, Hillsburgh
• Lakeshore Environmental Gardening Society (LEGS), Etobicoke
• (Lakeside Community Garden Food Forest, Kingston – to be delivered in 2021)

Fedge Grant:

• Ecosource, Mississauga

Note, if you are unable to take delivery of your fedge plants this spring, we can have them heeled in for you for later pickup. We will be in touch with you to confirm plant choices; please send us the name of the person we should call to finalize your plant lists.

Online Courses Awarded:

Because some of the winners have already taken the course, we are offering the online course to some of the other applicants. Susan Poizner has graciously increased the number of courses in this unusual year.

• Lakeside Community Garden Food Forest, Kingston
• Parkview Neighbourhood Garden (PNG), Toronto
• Kingston Secondary School Indigenous Food Forest, Kingston

Congratulations to all winners! Thank you to ALL applicants; it’s never been more important to plant food and we salute you all. Feel free to apply again next year if you did not win this year.

Please stay safe, and keep planting as much as possible.
