The northern Summer Edition of the SOILED AND SEEDED MAGAZINE is now available online.
a
From the editor: In keeping with the high-yield season, our summer edition turns productively towards a diverse collection of essays, portraits and stories of plants and people. In this issue, we step out of the garden and linger along its edges, only to realize the abundance of treasures lying before us. As Ashley Glenn writes in her piece, Gardens of Diversity: Preserving Traditions, Knowledge and Nature “…gardens have potential far beyond the plants in the ground. They are ancient classrooms, innovative laboratories, nutritious food pantries and welcoming community centres.”
An idea worth cultivating.
