ThINC Nature House: Sunday, Aug 28

9:00 - 11:00 am: Harvest Hours at the PAG, Lot 62 North Cove Road (all ages)

Today is the last scheduled day to visit the People's Apothecary Garden this summer! Drop by during our open hours: 9-11 to explore the space and/or harvest some plants! With the help from community volunteers and our wonderful summer employees, Linnea and Connelly, the garden is now at a place in which it can 'almost' self maintain for the remainder of the season! The medicinal plants are well-established and are able to keep the grasses and buttercup at bay, and hardy enough to withstand the drier conditions. Although we've planted some new botanical fellows, we've decided to wait until the rains come to plant the rest. After many days of digging, the path is now wider throughout - which is super helpful for workshops and walks, and for the Thetis Island School kids to zoom around more effectively!  

Thank you to everyone who visited the garden this summer, and a big thanks to all of our volunteers who gave us a hand at the PAG and/or shared their plant knowledge!

Open hours at the PAG will continue weekly throughout the fall until the space is put to rest for the winter (late Oct). For details on when, keep your eyes peeled on eSPOKES and/or on our website: www.thetisislandnatureconservancy.org

Thank you!
