We’re growing a diversity of heirloom crops in five Urban Seed Saving community garden plots across the region in order to promote the growth of unique heirloom crops in diverse spaces, provide ingredients for our cooking programs, provide an opportunity to share skills and stories, and increase the quantity & quality of locally grown seeds available in our community.
In spite of the unseasonal weather, local farmers’ markets have been able to offer delicious produce for all of us. For the past few years, Nourish has been promoting greater connections to this local produce through our Nourish Market Dollars program. This Local Food Week, we are happy to announce that the Silver Bean Café, Black Honey Dessert and Coffeehouse, Tiny Greens, and the Lakefield Pantry will now be accepting our Nourish Market Dollars!
We're hiring!

Recently at Trent Child Care, what started out as a seed of an idea; an opportunity for exploration, grew into something bigger … and delicious.
Lisa works as an RECE in the infant room and noticed that one of the youngsters kept saying the word ‘apple’ whenever he saw one. Following his lead, she decided to bring some apples into the classroom for him and the others to explore. They loved watching her peel the apples and then eating the fruit so much that Lisa decided to take this one step further and make apple crisp with them.
