Upcoming event: CNYC dinner and auction
The Core Neighbourhood Youth Co-op will hold its annual dinner and auction on Thursday, 28 May. The fun starts at 5:30 pm with cocktails and the silent auction, supper is at 6:30 pm, and the live auction will kick off after that at 8:30pm.
The Core Neighbourhood Youth Co-op is an alternative high school program for at risk youth. Those who take part in CNYC’s programs can earn high school credits while learning life and employment skills in a compassionate environment. One of Core’s great initiatives is its urban gardening program. Here, young people learn valuable skills by studying horticulture and their environment. They take part in a variety of gardening activities centred around aquaponic and traditional greenhouses and raised bed gardening, learning composting techniques, bee keeping, canning, preserving, healthy eating, and cooking. They also manufacture some lovely furniture (including garden furniture), which is for sale, as well as rain barrels and worm composting bins. Keep your eye out for the salad and salsa containers CNYC will be putting together and selling at the Farmers’ Market next month!
