We decided to make this section public while we work on the framework for the programs/projects that tie into the different groups within the Collective. We have some content posted and will be adding more and more as we go. You will find that within each Just Community Network, there are sections that are specific to that community. There will be those involved with the FIFE - Food Is For Everyone for their community helping with posting and managing these requirements for the efforts to assist those most in need. 

Currently, you will find in the Just Oshawa group a tab (FIFE) and other tabs may be added later. The tab is not active, part of the framework we are working on. This group will become a large and robust set of activities that will work together to increase our knowledge about various options to grow for others while also growing for ourselves. It is not just about growing food but to help us move towards healthier and more nutritious options with our foods.

You will find a growing set of videos that we have found informative and useful, through ongoing practical applications of our efforts to grow in small spaces year-round. We have been growing for years indoors and still continue to learn and test out new methods and options. As we build out the different sections you will start to learn more about how to use recycled materials to grow with and without dirt.

All content is freely shared for the benefit of all. We are building programs and projects that together we will start to provide free food for those most in need who are unable to grow for themselves. We are also doing things differently, as an active member of this group you will have free access to seedlings for growing in hydroponics within your community network. We are creating our heritage seeds that are being used for growing the seedlings. This coming season, we have a list of herbs/plants that we wish to start seed production to add to our already-started list of seeds from our Wild Edibles. We have found that many of these plants have a benefit in helping with our overall health and nutrition, many who suffer from food insecurities need every advantage for their health, and those wishing to improve their food option can benefit as well. Growing our food in a controlled environment we can also guarantee a plant free from herbicides and pesticides for our consumption. 

We will be adding new content and building the framework for the various programs/projects as we go. With the participation of local small businesses, we will be providing space to grow, providing a Pay It Forward program and so much more in a combined effort to provide more free food for those most in need, Working together we can share our knowledge, experiences, and food options to benefit all.
