This has happened before with other provincial programs with the money running out within a day or two.
Under the Species at Risk Farm Incentive Program, applicants may receive 45 or 50 or 75 per cent of their costs. The government lists 13 Best Management Practices it wants to encourage.
The Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement Association (OSCIA) will start accepting applicants at 9 a.m. March 14.
OSCIA president Warren Schneckenburger said ““Tte Environmental Farm Plan is the perfect complement to SARFIP because it allows farmers to evaluate how their operation is meeting their farm’s stewardship needs and identify opportunities to take action.”


The summer season means a lot of us are planting and growing our own fruits and veggies. It also makes it the perfect opportunity to swap produce with fellow mobile market go-ers!
Come and join us at the mobile markets on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of the month and exchange your homegrown produce with your neighbours or even us. This event will only run from now until September, so make sure to spread the word and bring a friend!

It’s back! Our Seedy Saturday workshop series in partnership with the Vancouver Public Library – Kensington branch is returning for the 2016 season and kicking off on March 5th.
Our first session will cover starting seeds indoors, an important skill for beginner and advanced gardeners alike. Instructor Tamiae Squibb will show participants how and when to start which seeds indoors (and which to sow directly), go over caring for the seeds, and discuss transplanting those little seedlings.
As always, our Seed Sharing Library will be open and full of seeds for participants to take home to experiment with in their gardens. We also accept donations of seeds – if you save seeds yourself and have extras, please bring some to share with everyone.
This workshop is free but seating is limited so please pre-register online or in person at the Kensington branch of the Vancouver Public Library. Light refreshments will be served.
See you there!

For the past few months, the Cedar Cottage Food Network has been working with a designer to create a food asset map for the Kensington-Cedar Cottage neighbourhood. A food asset map highlights food infrastructure in the area (gardens, food retailers, food programs, etc) while showing which pockets of the neighbourhood may need improvement. For example, one would notice the high concentration of community gardens at the north end of the neighbourhood, near Commercial-Broadway station and Trout Lake. There are fewer in other parts of the neighbourhood. There are a multitude of reason why this might be and the point of a food asset map is to start conversations around why these assets exist in some places but not others.
Now, we need your input. Is the map comprehensive? Do you see anything we’ve missed on the map? Have any ideas to address gaps you see? Send any comments to cedarcottagefoodnetwork[at]gmail[dot]com. Thank you for your thoughts!

Coriandrum sativum. While other types of cilantro have sent up their tall flower stalks and set seed, Calypso cilantro remains bushy and productive. This compact, low-growing variety comes from a British breeding program, and it's the slowest to bolt in side by side trials — resisting the urge to bolt by as many as three weeks. Its fragrance adds a distinctive flavour to broths, tacos, and countless other meals. Its low growing point allows it to regrow after multiple cuts for an extended harvest.
Matures in 50 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
- Slowest bolting variety
- Multiple harvests
- Repeat sowings
- Excellent flavour

What are the pros? Sauce or Salsa
What are the cons? Nothing
Great tomato flavor and not overly sweet- so easy to use for salsa or a sauce. Low water content so processing time is minimal. Can cut off top and squeeze into food processor after blanched. Perfect size for this. KEEP WELL MULCHED so the moisture level stays even. 1 inch of water per week. I don't prune at all, just initial suckers. Blossom End Rot happens when it's allowed to dry out. The roots can't absorb the calcium that's already there. They shut down until hydrated again, so you'll have BER until then. Big root systems help, so a contained system would be a challenge for it. Since they're for canning, I don't rush them. I have a few early varieties for that purpose. Again, keep well mulched and grow a massive root system to support heavy production. Most soils have plenty of calcium already...they just need to be hydrated to absorb it.

Live Oak Farms Expands Into Coachella, California
LE GRAND, CA - Slice ‘em, dice ‘em, and increase the ring at the register—the opportunities within the bell pepper category are primed and ready to fortify retail fresh produce departments. Live Oak Farms is responding to the ever-growing demand for consistent, quality supplies and resources with the addition of green and red bell peppers from the Coachella Valley to its production network.
“Our customers have been asking for Live Oak to expand our production window, and we’re pleased to announce that Live Oak’s commitment to excellence in product quality and service is coming to Coachella this year,” said Donna Vaughan, Live Oak Partner and Salesperson.
The program includes green and elongated red bell peppers, including DRC packs to order.
“Live Oak embarked on the expansion of our existing bell pepper program in 2018, with the installation of one of the most advanced technology packing lines in North America,” Chief Operating Officer Ed Beckman said. "We’re now complementing our growth in Central California with an expanded production window supported by an aggressive product development program that works closely with seed companies and other technology providers to differentiate Live Oak in the marketplace.”
The addition of Coachella and Southern San Joaquin Valley, California, production in late-May will enable Live Oak to meet the needs of its customer relationships at a higher level. The new programs will be available beginning in mid-April. The first product will be shipped in April, with red bells to follow in May. According to a press release, Live Oak’s bell pepper program had previously been limited to a late June to October window.
This new acreage across new growing regions enables the company to ensure supplies through the end of the year. Acreage in Coachella and Bakersfield joins the established production in Merced and Santa Clara Counties.
Live Oak Farms also grows tomatoes, including Roma tomatoes, from June through late October and added a premium jalapeño pepper to its specialty pepper line in recent years.

FROM THE FARMERS
Eliot Coleman says it’s hard for him to find motivation in the garden when he is looking at dead plants, and I agree! The frosts last week left a general sense of decline across the farm. The fall outside tomatoes were left hanging with unripe fruit, full of potential. There was even concern our fall crop of tomatoes in our unheated hoop houses was going to succumb to the 24 degree temperatures without yielding a single tomato. Jack Frost shows no quarter.
Brassicas give me hope! Not only do they survive the frost, many thrive. The kale only gets sweeter, and the moths wing’s that plagued our spring broccoli and cabbage are delightfully frozen. Coleman says his motivation comes from clearing out the dead and planting new crops as soon as possible to fill the void. The tomatoes have been cut down, the field corn is picked and the sweet potatoes are curing, all to make way for more winter vegetables and cover crops. The farm can grow year-round, we are just learning the dance.
Transitioning into fall our minds are busy with the work at hand, but also consumed with thoughts of the year ahead. Thank you, to everyone who has completed the survey we sent out last week! Your feed back in so important to us, because we know that our success is directly linked to your satisfaction! If you don’t have the time to take the survey, we are always open to conversation. Just a few words at pickup will be remembered, and we plan on making ourselves available at the potluck to hear your thoughts. Thanks again, for supporting our farm and CSA.

A vertical lettuce farm at a Richards Street parkade has filed for bankruptcy.
The farm, which was enthusiastically promoted by Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson, tried to sell greens to trendy restaurants under the Local Garden brand.
It’s a formula that’s worked for a few urban farmers, including Kelowna’s Curtis Stone, who grows micro greens for restaurants. (For a story on Stone, click here.)
But the Vancouver venture by Alterrus Systems seems to have wilted.
“The board of directors of Alterrus Systems Inc. has made an assignment of the company pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act,” according to a press release. “This has been necessitated by both operational and financial matters facing the company.”

Waking up to a glorious Sunday morning without a cloud in the sky was a rare treat, especially as I had 2 days of planting out, sowing and general maintenance planned. So, after an hour in the woods with the dog and a breakfast of bacon sandwich, the planting out commenced
My Pendle Improved leeks are not as advanced as last year's due to the dreadful winter/early spring weather. |However, with warmth at last, they're now showing signs of picking up. I only grow these leeks with a view to getting an entry in the local show, which I've won for the last 2 years. This year, I've planted out just 12 plants so far, but another 8 are waiting in the wings for any spare space I may be able to find. Normally, I'd start the blanching process at this stage, but this year I've decided to wait until the plants have put on a bit more weight before fitting anything more than short collars which are only designed to increase the length of the stem. Hopefully, I'll be able to start the blanching process blanching before the end of May.
My runner beans are the variety 'Enorma', which were good for me last year. Just 6 plants feeds the 3 of us for most of the summer. The dark patches behind the plants are where I've scattered a handful of pot marigold seeds saved from last year.
I've got several modules of brassicas on the go. These are Cauliflower 'Raleigh' and Purple Sprouting. Cabbage and broccoli plants are going to be a little later this year.
Other than a few lettuce plants and Dwarf French Beans (var. Speedy) I filled my largest raised bed with what I hope will end up as large onions. The varieties are 'Mammoth Red', Kelsae and a locally saved selection from Kelsae stock that I was given some time ago last autumn.
Woke up to much the same cloudless, but noticeably warmer morning. The poor old dog had to endure an even earlier outing at 6.30am. She was not amused until she realised I'd got a load of dog treats in my pocket. The first big event was that the following bacon sandwich benefited from the addition of a fried egg, thus creating the classic weekend breakfast. I think I'll designate the bacon sandwich as my signature dish.
Today it was the turn of the smaller 'Vento' and 'Centro' onions to get planted out. Although I had great hopes for 'Vento', now that the seed is no longer pelleted, again I've been disappointed with the germination rate at about 75% as opposed to 100% for 'Centro'. So, it's the latter that is better represented. All in all, I now have around 80 plants in the newest of the raised beds.
Last year, we suffered high winds through much of the earl;y part of the summer which severely damaged the top growth of my onions. I quickly cobbled together a windbreak for one of the beds which worked well, but those not protected were badly damaged. The upshot is that I've constructed easily removable protection for the whole crop this year.
New sowings were made of Marrow var. 'Table Dainty', Cabbage var. 'Golden Acre', Lettuce var. 'Little Gem' and more Dwarf Bean 'Speedy'.
Finally, knocked this together. What is it, I hear you ask. All will be revealed in about a month or so, at a guess.
So, that was pretty much it for the long weekend on the plot. A very pleasing couple of days.
I started these couple of posts with a picture of the plot as it was on Saturday morning. By last night, it looked like this. Happy days!

THE onion is a vegetable that has long been appreciated – the Egyptians even worshipped it.
But next month, Elveden Estate is holding a special event honouring the onion and celebrating the best in East Anglian produce.
On August 6, Elveden Estate – which produces six percent of the UK’s onions – is staging the Big Onion event in celebration of the vegetable.
The 22,500 acre estate, owned by Lord Iveagh, produces more than 23,000 tonnes of onions each year, providing 30 percent of the farm income.
The Big Onion, which kicks off at 10am in the estate’s Walled Garden, near Thetford, will showcase local producers, and will also feature live music and fun activities. A food stage, featuring demonstrations from a number of local chefs, will run throughout the day and children can get involved with tractor rides, face painting and potato printing.
Frances Armstrong, Elveden Estate marketing manager, said: “It will be a good day out for all the family to celebrate all the good things about East Anglia – good food, good chefs and good music.”

A Victorian field in Preston Plucknett
Field Dean was originally part of a large field called Deane, or Dean Field, in the north of Preston Plucknett, to the north of Preston Road and west of Larkhill Lane. It was subdivided into four fields by the middle of the nineteenth century.
The 1846 Preston Tithe Map shows Field Dean in the centre of the field system to the north of Preston Great Farm and Preston Road and west of Larkhill Lane. The Preston Plucknett Tithe Apportionment of 1848 noted that Field Dean was owned by Lady Georgiana Fane of Brympton d'Evercy and the tenant was Thomas Hawkins.
Shown as Parcel 78 at the centre of the map below, Field Dean lay to the east of the now long-gone field access track running up the centre of the map and Dodham Brook to its east. It was bounded to the north by Broad Dean (77) and to the south by Grass Dean (79).
Field Dean disappeared when Abbey Manor was built in the 1980s and the site is now occupied by Elmleigh.

DDGS values are lower again this week amid the heightened volatility in corn and soybean meal futures. Ethanol run rates remain strong and product supply is ample, which is also pressuring offers. The increased DDGS supply has producers with access to river markets pushing product there and making competitive offers.
The DDGS/cash corn ratio is steady with last week at 1.11 and above the three-year average of 1.02 while the DDGS/Kansas City soymeal ratio is also steady with last week at 0.47 and below the three-year average of 0.50.
Barge CIF NOLA DDGS offers are $14/MT lower this week as barge freight weakens and offers for product destined for the river system continue to ease lower. FOB NOLA offers are $6-9/MT lower while U.S. rail rates are steady/$2 lower. Offers for 40-foot containers to Southeast Asia are down $5/MT at $310 for July shipment and are down just $2-3/MT for August-October positions.

I am trying to look for a perennial winter-hardy salad, to eat raw. But I haven´t found one yet. Any ideas?

BLACK PEARL PEPPER
These Black Pearl Peppers were a HUGE hit last year during this season. Unlike last year, we are selling 3.5" plants instead of 1 gallons, but knowing the transformation this plant goes through as it matures makes me excited for customers to purchase a younger plant. Not only does the foliage turn from green to black, which make an incredible background for the bright purple flowers, but the peppers start out purple, turn to green, then black, & finally when they are a bright red color the peppers are ripe! Even more (!!), the peppers are HOT, HOT, HOT! With a 10,000 to 30,000 Scoville rating, they are 4 to 12 times more spicy than a jalapeño! If you pick the pepper while it is purple or black it will be much less spicy than if you wait until it is red & ripe 🌶.
These plants are really incredible & will sell quickly, so if you are looking to purchase one I would jump on it!


PLUM POLLINATION: Very Important! Our plum varieties are crosses between Japanese and American plums. While this creates hardy delicious fruit it also creates a nearly sterile tree.
Unlike apples, just having two different plum varieties flowering simultaneously will not insure proper cross pollination. We recommend to use Toka as your pollinator.

Analysing five everyday foods including apples, cheese, beefburgers, carrots and bread, the findings concluded that farmers receive less than 1% of the profit after deductions from intermediaries and retailers.
For four beefburgers, the processor takes ten times the profit of the beef farmer. Elsewhere, the cereal farmer spends 9.03p on a wrapped, sliced loaf of bread with a selling price of £1.14 and receives 0.09p in profit. This loaf would make 0.5p profit if sold in an independent bakery.
Lengthy supermarket supply chains divert profits to intermediaries like processors, transport companies and retailers, whilst shorter supply chains including vegetable box schemes and coops attribute more value to farmers and their workers.
The charity is calling on the UK government to revise supply chain regulations to make them fairer for farmers.
Vicki Hird, Head of Farming at Sustain, said: “It is astonishing how little of the money we pay for our food ends up in the hands of the farmers and growers. Farmers carry a lot of risk and work in difficult conditions to put food on our table.
“We also expect them to look after our landscape and our nature – and want them to do more of that in the future including protecting nature and helping to cut 30% of food based climate changing greenhouse gas emissions.
“If they are to do that, they need more money in their businesses.”
The British Retail Consortium is a trade association for all UK retailers including supermarkets. Andrew Opie, Director of Food & Sustainability, told The Independent: “Retailers have long-standing, established relationships with their suppliers and know how important maintaining these are for their customers and businesses.
“Supermarkets source the vast majority of their food from the UK and know they need to pay a sustainable price to farmers, however, they are also facing additional costs and are working incredibly hard to limit price increases for consumers during a cost-of-living crisis where many people are struggling to afford the essentials.”


Prabhu asks agri min to set up research project for bamboo sector development
New Delhi: Former union minister Suresh Prabhu has asked Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar to set up an All India Coordinated Research Project (AICRP) on bamboo with a view to promote the growth of the sector.
Prabhu launched an independent India Bamboo Forum (IBF) last month with an aim to give a boost to the bamboo sector by promoting entrepreneurship, research, and trade of high quality bamboo products in a sustainable manner.
In a letter to Tomar, Prabhu said that the forum is working with different stakeholders, policy makers and industry to identify specific thematic areas of the states and national ecosystems that require resolution.
There is a need for a comprehensive bamboo resource database for the development of bamboo applications particularly for value-chain development, he said.
“In this connection, formulation of an All India Coordinated Research Project (AICRP) on bamboo under Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR), under the agriculture ministry, would make the production, development, movement and tracking of bamboo convenient by many fold throughout the country,” Prabhu has said.
The AICRP is already in existence for several crops including banana and spices.
Sanjeev Karpe, one of the conveners of IBF, said, “We are requesting ICAR to study cost determining factors for sustainable market of bamboo raw material and bottlenecks between demand and supply chain and also to study sector specific primary processing and utilisation for zero wastage of bamboo raw material.”
About 2.5 billion people in the world depend economically on bamboo, and international trade in bamboo is estimated at about USD 4.5 million per year.

Saskatchewan invests $15 million in agtech
August 25, 2020 By Fruit and Vegetable
The Government of Saskatchewan will provide $15 million to help develop new technologies in agriculture.
Through Innovation Saskatchewan, funds will be invested in a privately-managed fund targeted exclusively at agtech companies that require venture capital to develop past the startup phase and scale up their business operations and manufacturing.
“The proper support, combined with strong research in agricultural innovation and the success of agtech startups, can make Saskatchewan a global force in agtech,” Minister Responsible for Innovation Saskatchewan Tina Beaudry-Mellor said. “This investment will bring jobs and new growth to our province and equip farmers and producers with game-changing technology.”
According to the government, this investment will accelerate the province’s economic recovery from COVID-19 and build upon a record year for venture capital investment in Saskatchewan. Deals worth $114 million were made in 2019, more than the previous five years combined, and most of those investments were made in Saskatchewan’s tech sector. Once a partner is found, the $15 million investment is expected to leverage millions more from private investors, complementing Innovation Saskatchewan’s existing programs which support agtech startups but are not designed to scale companies to full business capacity.
Innovation Saskatchewan will issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) in the coming weeks to begin exploring fund options with the private sector.
“Saskatchewan is rising to the challenge of feeding a growing world population and innovation in agriculture technology plays an important role in meeting that growing demand,” Agriculture Minister David Marit said. “This investment will ensure producers have made-in-Saskatchewan technology that supports their efforts to grow high-quality, sustainable food.”
With global demand for food anticipated to rise 70 per cent by 2050, Innovation Saskatchewan is helping farmers gain a competitive edge to meet the future by building upon a significant and historic economic driver.
The agency’s new investment, combined with its Saskatchewan Advantage Innovation Fund, Saskatchewan Technology Startup Incentive and the $1 million Agtech Growth Fund announced in July, will work with the rest of the province’s agricultural infrastructure to help stimulate the provincial economy.

De Mello Palheta
Grape, Cherry, Mango
Floriberto Y Faiber Arena
La Virginia, La Argentina, Huila
FROM THE ROASTER
Floriberto and Faiber are second-generation coffee farmers. They recently moved to La Argentina, in the township of Mirador, in the last few years. Previously, Floriberto and his wife and children lived South of Huila, in Saladoblanco, about two hours away, soon followed by Faiber. Floriberto recently bought a farm, La Virginia, that had Pink Bourbon and Geisha, Red, Pink and Yellow Bourbons. Faiber did the same, purchased a farm nearby named La Vega and are now working together, mixing their coffees to make a dedicated Pink Bourbon lot. This varietal carries an interesting tasting profile and a lot of speculation when it comes to its origin and is very much sought by coffee buyers. Some producers in Huila have trees with a different characteristic: pink cherries.
Our importing partner, Shared Source, started working with the group in 2015, purchasing micro-lots at local auctions and trying to understand their challenges and find solutions. The solution was to use moisture meters to handle drying processes better, improving the storage of parchment coffee in the group’s warehouse, where it is less susceptible to heavy air moisture and re-humidification of dry coffee. Our importing partner paid Floriberto and Faiber 2 400 000 pesos per carga (125kg of coffee), CAD$ 2.80 per lb of parchment coffee, which he then transferred from Huila to a mil in Cauca at the importer’s expense.
Through ASOPROCAAR’s and Willington’s expertise, they developed a systematic and dynamic process on their farms. Coffee cherries are carefully picked, hand-sorted, separating un-ripe or over-ripe from their lots. The coffee is then de-pulped and fermented in sealing bags before being washed and placed on a large parabolic dryer on the farm. Floriberto and Faiber’s mastering of the entire farming to processing Pink Bourbon chain gives us a delicate, juicy and exotic cup, very «Ethiopian-like.» Very drinkable.

- DESCRIPTION: Oryzalin is a pre-emergence surface-applied herbicide. It acts through the disruption (depolymerization) of microtubules, thus blocking anisotropic growth of plant cells. It is used for control of annual grasses and broad-leaved weeds in fruit trees, nut trees, vineyards, turfs and around ornamentals by selectively affecting physiological growth process. It can also be used to induce ploidity as an alternative to colchicine. It has a low aqueous solubility, is not volatile and, based on its chemical properties, is not expected to leach to groundwater. However, groundwater monitoring programmes have identified it as a pollutant. It generally tends not to be persistent in soil or water systems. It has a low mammalian toxicity and is a potential carcinogen. It is moderately toxic to birds, most aquatic organisms, honeybees and earthworms.

Soybeans ended higher. US June CPI data was higher than expected. For some this suggested US Central Bank will increase rates in July and maybe Sep. There is some hope that that could be the highest data for the year. Some feel recent drop in energy and grain prices could suggest US inflation may be peaking. USDA dropped US 2022 soybean crop 135 mil bu due to lower acres. US 2-3 week Midwest forecast is warm and dry. 65-70 pct Midwest has adequate topsoil moisture. US dropped US crush and exports to offset the lower crop. USDA est World 2022/23 soybean crop at 391 mmt vs 352 ly. Is this too high? USDA also est World soybean exports at 169 mmt vs 154 ly. Is this too low? USDA est South America 2023 soybean production at 210 mmt vs 174 this past year. China 2022/23 soybean imports are est at 98 mmt vs 90 this year and 100 last year. Trade est US weekly new crop soybean sales near 100-300 mt vs 240 last week.
Corn futures ended higher. US cash domestic corn basis remains firm on a slowdown in farmer selling and fact end users are trying to add coverage. US June CPI data was higher than expected. For some this suggested US Central Bank will increase rates in July and maybe Sep. There is some hope that that could be the highest data for the year. Some feel recent drop in energy and grain prices could suggest US inflation may be peaking. USDA increased US 2022 corn crop due to higher acres. US 2-3 week Midwest forecast is warm and dry. 65-70 pct Midwest has adequate topsoil moisture. US dropped US feed use but most feeders report same or higher feed us than last year. The first unanswered question is will UN, Russia and Ukraine agree to a deal that would open a corridor for Ukraine exports. Wire services report some kind of agreement may be signed next week. Still, most doubt Russia will agree without dropping sanctions and Ukraine will not agree unless Russia stops the war. The other unknown is what final US 2022/23 corn supply will look like versus USDA July guess. USDA est World corn imports at 177 mmt vs 179 ly. Is this too low?

Last week there were rumors China may have bought US PNW corn for Jan-Feb.
Wheat futures ended lower. US June CPI inflation date was higher than expected. Given recent drop in energy and grain futures some hope this may be the top for inflation. USDA est World 2022/23 wheat imports at 202 mmt vs 196 ly. Is this too low? USDA also est World wheat exports at 205 mmt vs 200 ly. Is this too high? US is 22 mmt vs 22 last year. Russia is 40 vs 33 last year. EU is 35 vs 29 last year. Ukraine is 10 vs 18 ly. Is USDA est of EU wheat crop at 134 mmt too high? The first unanswered question is will UN, Russia and Ukraine agree to a deal that would open a corridor for Ukraine exports. US HRW harvest is wrapping up in KS,OK and TX. Fears of global economic recession continue to offer resistance to wheat prices. Recent decline in US prices makes US exports more competitive. Tight US corn stocks until new crop harvest this fall could see more wheat feeding. Baker remains active component pricing futuresin lower futures trend. Active new crop HRW selling has pressured nearby basis. Logistical challenges still forecasted for balance of Q4 which likely limits downside basis pressure Baker est to be 30-35% covered Q4 and 5-10% covered Q1 2023 and continues to look to add coverage on dips.

There’s a new micro-farm site at Royal Bay Secondary School in the west shore. It has been set up for the school through the Sooke School District (SD62) by a non-profit organization called LifeCycles Project.
The LifeCycles Project mission is to “build a resilient food system in Greater Victoria by growing, harvesting, and sharing food,” says Matthew Kemshaw. He’s is a Garden Coordinator employed by the Edward Milne Community School (EMCS) Society under the umbrella of the Sooke School District (SD62).
SD62 has been working with LifeCycles to establish a micro-farm at the school, using the TOPSOIL Urban Agriculture model of growing in geotextile containers. This will allow students to produce a significant yield immediately, as they work to build their outdoor learning site into a bio-diverse garden sanctuary.
SD62 Healthy Schools coordinator Cindy Andrew is excited about the project, last week Tweeting out her thanks to Lifecycles and SD62 for getting this project launched for students in the west shore.
Summer work experience:
Summer work experience programs will be offered to SD62 students this summer.
The program will be hosted once a week at Royal Bay Secondary (in Colwood), and once a week at Edward Milne Community School (in Sooke).
Lifecycles also offers a variety of programs to help provide food for the community, and strengthen the relationship between people and the earth.
At the root of their movement is the relationship between healthy food, healthy communities, and a healthy planet. Through sustainable projects and volunteer opportunities, they aim to empower people by sharing their food knowledge and practices in the community.
Lifecycles Project board chair is Rhianna Nagel and Executive Direct or is Joan Stonehocker. Program manager is Leah Seltzer.
Here are some of the LifeCycles programs:
- School Workshops – The group offers 29 hands-on indoor and outdoor workshops for grades from K-12. Workshops include lessons on pollinators, plant cycles, seed saving, and herbalism.
- Farm gleaning – Volunteers redistribute surplus farm produce to people experiencing food insecurity within the region, partnering with the Food Rescue Project [retail partners are Country Grocer, Fairway Market, Red Barn Market, The Root Cellar, Thrifty Foods, Whole Foods].
- Fruit Tree Project – Volunteers find fallen tree fruit that would otherwise go to waste and redistribute them to those who need it. Fruit more suited for processing is sent to various breweries.
- Seed Library – The library hosts over 200 varieties of vegetable, flower, and herb seeds, stored at the Greater Victoria Public Library.
- Wellend Community Orchard – All are welcome to visit this large and diverse orchard, located off the Galloping Goose Trail at 1215 Stancil Lane, View Royal. Fruit trees found there include fig, pear, plum, persimmon, sour cherry, paw paw, hazelnut, shipova, medlar, and quince, and kiwi.

30 years ago: Amazone sowing combination captures the market in new federal states
The rotary cultivator sowing combination had a huge impact 30 years ago. Shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall, almost a thousand spectators from the former GDR marvelled at the deployment of the modern till and drill combination at an agricultural cooperative in the Wittenberg district of Zahna. A newspaper article reported on our machine demonstration: "AMAZONE conquers Zahna".
Since the fields in the former GDR were so much larger than those in the western federal states, the 6-metre combination not only provided an ideal quality of work, but also a suitable work rate.
This demonstration was organised by Artur Möbius, who later became Amazone factory representative for the Saxony region. When he visited his brother in the district of Osnabrück immediately after reunification, he also happened to come into contact with AMAZONEN-WERKEN and a series of joint ventures were planned shortly afterwards. Sometime later, he was officially employed in our company. Until his retirement, Mr. Möbius played a major role in the distribution of Amazone machinery throughout the new federal states.

Phylogenetic tree of predicted protein sequences of rice and Arabidopsis Glycosyl Hydrolase Family 1 genes. The tree was derived by the Neighbor-joining method from the protein sequence alignment in the Supplementary Data Additional File 2 made with Clustalx with default settings, followed by manual adjustment. Large gap regions were removed for the tree calculation. The tree is drawn as an unrooted tree, but is rooted by the outgroup, Os11bglu36, for the other sequences. The bootstrap values are shown at the nodes. The clusters supported by a maximum parsimony analysis are shown as bold lines, and the loss and gain of introns are shown as open and closed diamonds, respectively. The 7 clusters that contain both Arabidopsis and rice sequences that are clearly more closely related to each other than to other Arabidopsis or rice sequences outside the cluster are numbered 1–7, while the outgroup cluster for which the Arabidopsis orthologue is not shown in numbered (8). Two Arabidopsis clusters that are more distantly diverged from the clusters containing both rice and Arabidopsis are numbered At I and At II, while rice genes and groups of genes that appear to have diverged before subclusters containing both rice and Arabidopsis are marked with stars.


It’s no secret that the cannabis industry has a pesticide problem, with solutions yet to be determined. Marijuana ecommerce platform Tradiv (a cannabis startup and CanopyBoulder alumni) recently to implement quality assurance processes to help confront this problem head-on.
The initiative assists in addressing the industry’s pesticide issues by offering free testing for each vendor, allowing cultivators risk mitigation in the face of product recalls. As marijuana is federally illegal, there are no definitive guidelines restricting or banning the use of pesticides in cannabis grow operations; in Colorado, pesticide-adjacent regulation is still in its infancy with an expected rollout date of 2017. Tradiv has taken quality control a step further by providing cultivators with education that include tools with which to navigate state pesticide testing. Pesticide use is under increasing scrutiny in Colorado, and as the state refines regulations surrounding the use of pesticides in the cannabis market, Tradiv has started down an important path towards standardization.
Other than the obvious benefit to its vendors (and the end consumer), why is this significant? It’s evidence of an industry entering maturation. With companies such as Tradiv taking the steps necessary to facilitate compliance, the cannabis industry further opens itself up to responsible growth, mainstream integration and ultimately, increasingly progressive legislation. By moving towards inventory standards for the platform, the company is pushing the cannabis industry as a whole to self-directed accountability and further legitimization.

Meet our grower
Meet our grower, Joe Brosius. He's the visionary behind 36° Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
Joe fell in love with the California Central Coast while attending Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where he received his degree in Ornamental Horticulture. Following college, he started his career in ornamental plant production, and growing perennials, California native plants and Mediterranean shrubs for retail nurseries and garden centers. He has become widely admired for his wealth of knowledge on all aspects of growing and is frequently consulted for his expertise. In 2000, Joe decided to apply that experience toward growing olive trees and creating exceptional olive oil.
In 2001, he found the perfect location — 26 undeveloped acres on a sun-soaked, south-facing hillside in Paso Robles, California. Over the following four years, he carefully selected, propagated and planted a variety of Spanish olive trees (Arbosana, Arbequenia and Picudo — he is one of the only producers of this olive in the U.S.) and Italian (Frantoio, Leccino, Pendolino, Maurino and Maraiolo). These varietals now compose ALTOMONTE, PICUDO (available in 2018) and CINQUE (available in 2018) estate-produced 36° Extra Virgin Olive Oil. The result? Handcrafted, robust and simply beautiful extra virgin olive oil.
From our trees to your table, you’ll definitely taste the difference!

On pre-emergent treatments is it a must that we should wait 30 days before the next herbicide treatment(post emergent)?
