Woodland flowers and hedgerows at the Corner Pollinator Garden | 739 Sherbourne Rd

May 24, 2025 (UTC-4)
Ottawa
Cultural Experiences
Eight years ago, Berit Erickson began adding native plants to her yard. At first, she had trouble finding early spring bloomers. She eventually figured out that trees, shrubs, and woodland flowers are the primary food sources for early pollinators. So, she planted shrubby hedgerows around her yard and added spring ephemerals to the existing shade gardens. She recently created a backyard mini forest to add even more spring blooms. See the succession of blooms and the pollinators visiting them, and find out how you can support spring bees in your yard. Bee researcher, Lydia Wong, will be on hand to identify bees and tell us which ones are active in spring and what they are looking for. Find out more about the Corner Pollinator Garden here.

About the Workshop: Are you interested in learning how to turn a memory or anecdote into a more substantial story about your life as a member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community or an 2SLGBTQIA+ ally? We often share these “kitchen table” moments about our daily experiences as 2SLGBTQIA+ without realizing their potential as stories. This workshop offers you ways to transform these "moments of being" into a compelling work of art. By focusing on one or more meaningful life experiences, you'll learn to shape a piece that highlights the importance of these moments from your life ans 2SLGBTQIA+ or as an ally and will connect deeply with listeners. About The Facilitator: Jeffrey Canton has been telling personal stories for nearly 30 years as well as teaching how queer storytellers can shape stories about their lives and experiences into performance pieces that have the depth and power they deserve. Whether you’re interested in telling a story about your connection to a key event in 2SLGBTQIA+ history, your coming out along the spectrum of queer identity, a transformative moment in your queerness or a slice of your life as 2SLGBTQIA+, Jeffrey will share different ways that you can explore to make your story come alive.
