THIS Sunday (July 9th), the KEGG Community Garden will be one of the 6 gardens being toured on the 6th Annual 'The Art of Gardening Tour' (which includes refreshments afterwards at Centre 64)!

This lovely event is not just a wonderful display of community gardens and gardeners (although it is definitely that), BUT, as the name implies, there is also subjective & interpretive (and alive) "art" on display in each garden, which varies by each artist/gardener (with the one always-involved collaborator being Mother Nature).

For example, up in Townsite, our KEGG community garden metaphorically paints with a focus on 'food production' over 'pretty flowers' (as our mandate is to donate 1/3 of our produce to Healthy Kimberley Food Depot, to be used in their community meal preps and/or given out to the community as picked), which means some of our prettiest colours are often hidden underground in our beets, carrots and radishes until pulled from the brown earth (although, if you're a fan of the colour green, our visible canvas is always filled with that hue).

But that's also a main part of the art of gardening — it's not just something that you can see, it's something you can smell and touch and taste and talk about with your friends & family & community… and like all good art, it's something that can inspire you to go try out for yourself or to go collaborate with others (or a bit of both).

In other words: we look forward to being apart of this celebration of local gardens & gardeners… and we're honoured to be a piece of this year's 'The Art of Gardening' community garden masterpiece!

The lineup of our beloved ASOIAF ttrpg campaign characters!⚔️

Our amazing GM @oneirotect has set us in 207 AC between the first and second Blackfyre Rebellions (around 90 years before Game of Thrones and 50 years after the death of the last known dragon). So far we've travelled across the Narrow Sea, partied in Braavos, escaped an assassination attempt by the Golden Company, made some difficult political decisions and started romantic entanglements with likely very dire consequences.
