To futher our commitment to the environment we have a 'leave a bag/take a bag' program.  Bring in your clean (no food/pet residue for allegen friends) re-useable shopping bags for others to use, take a bag if you forget yours - you can boomerang it the next week. We encourage our vendors to not use plastic whenever possible. 

Alternatively, you may purchase a reuseable cloth bag (only $4) that comes with a cute tbfm button. This is an ongoing fundraising campaign for market operations to help off-set regular expenses i.e. parking pylons that get dragged off to parts unknown never to return, regular wheel changes on our dollys and wagons that we use to load in/out vendors' product. It all costs and the market runs lean. Your contribution helps very much towards supporting the market and reusing!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer, and managing to stay cool.

The summer has been crazy busy in the park as you'll have noticed if you've been out, with particularly high numbers on the weekends.  They're
all enjoying the shade of the trees thanks to you!

For those who haven't attended a training in a while, our partners LEAF put out a timely reminder about tree watering which I'm sharing with you
as a reminder (https://bit.ly/2LqXgZ2).  Please have a peek, and hopefully it inspires you to get out and visit your tree soon if you haven't been
out for a while.

We've been doing training in the park all summer adding new adopters, and I'm so pleased every time I run into someone watering their tree.  It's a
great community, and I appreciate very much being a small part of it.

Stay cool, and do reach out or post on our facebook page (@FriendsofTrinityBellwoods or @Adoptatreeprogram) if you have any tree
news for our community!

With thanks,
