Mark Your Calendars: Join The Homegrown National Park Crawl Sun. Oct. 5th

I've mentioned the Homegrown National Park Project on the Blog. Great idea. In a nutshell:  "in 2013 we embarked on a mission to establish the world's first "Homegrown National Park" by crowd-sourcing a vibrant green corridor along the former path of Garrison Creek, in the City of Toronto's downtown west end."
Oct. 5th will mark the second annual Park Crawl.
Last year's looked as though it was a fun time!
Cheers,

Pizza in the Pits This Friday

IF THE INCESSANT RAIN WOULD STOP we could all enjoy more outdoor activities.

Sheesh.

That's the end of my whine.

Anyway, get out the rain gear and join Pizza in the Pits this Friday-- pizza made in the wood-burning oven in Christie Pits Park.

Here's the scoop:

"Pizza in the Pits is back on! Summer without pizza nights at Christie Pits would be, well, the pits. So we decided to bring it back. Join us this Friday, June 14th between 5 and 7 pm for some pizza fresh from the wood-burning oven. $5 gets you a fresh pizza pie made by a Park Ranger. Seriously. An actual Ranger. And if you happen to be an aspiring baker, pizza pie maker or person keen to make amazing things happen with the wood burning oven this summer, please do drop by. We should talk. Pizza in the Pits is being hosted by the Friends of Christie Pits Park with help from the Christie Pits Residents Association and the David Suzuki Foundation's Homegrown National Park Project. Come for our pre-summer trial run and share your ideas on how to re-ignite the community fire..." Cheers, Vanessa
