FRIDAY, 27th October
Community production workshop, 12-3 pm
The last Friday of the month, we bring plenty of fresh produce back from Harvest Montreal. These need to be transformed really quickly, or else they end up in the garbage. I am looking for a small team of volunteers to process the abundance ;)
Have a great week!
