Four Seasons Project : Concordia Greenhouse

I'm currently doing an internship in an urban greenhouse on the 13th floor of Concordia's Hall building. This project aims to explore the possibilities of urban agriculture in a greenhouse year-round. This includes overcoming the challenges of limited space and sunlight in the winter, while taking advantage of the year-round access to sun and warmth that the greenhouse provides. Currently, the project is both a source of organic, local food sold at places such as le Frigo Vert, Burritoville, and Café X, and an educational resource and demonstration site for different urban agricultural techniques (including microgreen production and container gardening). Our four seasons growing is dual tracked, with sprouts and greens growing simultaneously.

It's been a while....

I fell off the social media train shortly after then end of the spring semester. My summer was spent getting my hands dirty working as a landscaper, planting a garden, biking and hiking my ass off in Edmonton, Alberta.  Well it's time to get back on the blog train as I'm starting realise what a valuable tool it is to reflect on thoughts, ideas and activities in my life. I took a whole lot of photos this summer, so I propose a little recap.
