Tour of Islington United's Giving Garden and TUG Annual Membership Meeting

[Rhonda Teitel-Payne]

Hello TUGgers,

Just a reminder that the TUG Annual Membership Meeting is coming this Saturday, April 18 10-12:30 at the Islington United Giving Garden 25 Burnhampthorpe Rd. (Dundas West and Islington).

Please register at https://forms.gle/FBj3hPoM984Retx66

You don't need to be a TUG member to participate!

See the TUG 2025 report at www.torontourbangrowers.org with highlights of our past year (also attached as a PDF).

Other exciting news! Lunch will be provided by Ikeila Wright https://one-love-vegetarian-takeout-inc.square.site/. Ikeila will be there to talk about her longstanding catering and restaurant business for all our TUFT graduates to get some inspiration!

We'll start off with a tour of the gardens and hydroponic systems at the Islington United Giving Garden.

Hear how a church's Green Team scaled up production and is now supporting 4 community food programs in Etobicoke. As accessing public land remains difficult, we've encouraged urban farmers to partner with faith organizations to find space to grow - outdoors and indoors!

We're looking forward to seeing you in person!

Rhonda
