Let's meet! It's been too long, and I feel we need to get together, take some minutes, and set some goals for the meeting to follow that one. Suggestions about location, time, date of the next…Continue

Hey everyone, On Logie Street, just north of Queen and in between Shaw and Crawford there is a little green space. It is property of the TTC but looks as if it hasn't been used in years. Does anyone…Continue

This weekend they are building a greenhouse and would be happy to have TTo members volunteer to join in. It's a great opportunity learn how to build a greenhouse.

"Jennifer, You sound a bit 'deflated' over your efforts and I want to offer my thoughts. I think most of our members on this site are still *observing* what TTo is about, what is or may be developing, and if and how they might fit in. I…"

Green Space Update - call for support

I have been working hard to gather resources to support my Green Space on Logie Place project. When I contact organizations and when I go door to door, I introduce myself as a member of Transition Toronto. Sadly, I have received little support (except from you, John, thank you!) from any members of Transition Toronto and it seems that I am doing this project on my own. I am frantically preparing application for the Live Green grant which is due September 13th, as well as the Aviva Community…See More

International Pollinator Week

June 21-27 is International Pollinator Week. We need pollinating animals in order for our plant cycle to continue naturally. Maybe we could each promise to buy a bee-, bird-, butterfly- and/or bat-friendly plant or flower and plant it that week. I am planning on contacting Friends of Dufferin Grove to ask if we could perhaps have an area to plant flowers with kids/ anyone who is interested. Anyone interested, contact me at jen.crinion@gmail.com
