On Thursday, October 8th, Growing Chefs! Ontario, Urban Roots London, and Clayworx: Ceramic Arts Learning Centre are coming together for our annual collaborative fundraiser β€” a communal lunch of homemade breads and chef-crafted soups made with fresh, locally grown ingredients, served in a hand-picked artisan bowl from Clayworx that you take home with you.

After lunch, guests vote for their favourite soup β€” crowning the next SOUPer Bowl Champion πŸ† β€” and there are door prizes and silent auction items up for grabs along the way.

Two seatings available: 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM and 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM
πŸ“ Growing Chefs! at The Grove, 900 King Street
🎟️ $65 per person β€” includes your meal, your bowl, and a donation split between three incredible London nonprofits.

The garden is growing and we could use some extra hands. 🌱

Our Farm Site Drop-In Volunteer Hours are back every Tuesday in July β€” no experience necessary, just a willingness to get outside and get your hands dirty.

Drop by 300 Tartan Drive any Tuesday from 4:00–6:00 PM and spend an hour or two with our Garden Team learning about urban agriculture, what we're growing this season, and how it all connects to the food education work we do across London.

July 7th Β· July 14th Β· July 21st Β· July 28th

Summer won't last forever β€” but your pantry can. πŸ«™

Our next Family Cooking Class is all about making the most of Ontario's harvest season.

This August, families will learn the art of small-batch preserving together, crafting a sweet Peach Vanilla Jam and savoury Peach Tomato Salsa together before sitting down to a harvest board lunch with fresh sourdough, local cheeses, and seasonal vegetables.

It'll be a morning worth preserving. 🌿
