Let’s get our hands dirty and get the People’s Apothecary Garden ready for another season!
Tuesday, April 8, 2025 at 7:08AM Hello Thetis Islanders,
The Pollinator Garden is gearing up for its new life as an outdoor classroom, and as part of this shift, we’re turning up the focus on the People’s Apothecary Garden (PAG)! This space is all about celebrating medicinal plants, gardening tips and tricks, and, of course, supporting our buzzing pollinator friends.
To kick off the season, we need your help to give the PAG a little TLC and prep it for another flourishing year.
Join us this Sunday, April 13th at 2:00 pm (Lot 62 - please park along the road or at Forbes Hall) as we roll up our sleeves, pull a few weeds (goodbye, grasses, buttercup, daphne laurel, and blackberry!), and nourish our beloved plants with a fresh layer of compost.
Bring along: Gardening gloves, trowels, weeders, hand rakes, hori-horis, and/or any other tools you think might come in handy!
After this Sunday, I’ll be hosting regular drop-ins once or twice a week to continue preparing the garden for the season, and I’d be thrilled to have you join as a co-gardener anytime!
Hope to see you in the dirt!
Warmly,
Charlotte - ThINC Education and Stewardship Coordinator
