Plants Play


Plants do play with each other. Just to learn and experiment. We could learn a lot from them.

Thought I'd share the following Ted Talks video featuring Stefano Mancuso. Copy and paste the following into your browser and enjoy.

Our Collective Story Pieces


The Guelph Enabling Garden is currently installing more engraved bricks in the Woodland Area of the Garden. This should be finished by next week. It will be exciting to see the new messages that community members want to share with folks who visit the Garden.

How lovely it is to tell a piece of a story, to lay them down in the ground, spreading its roots, acknowledging the past, sharing it and letting it go, growing and growing, starting anew.
