11th Annual City Wide Food Drive

The 11th Annual City Wide Food Drive in support of the Saskatoon Food Bank & Learning Centre is just around the corner!

The Saskatoon Food Bank & Learning Centre has been seeing a drastic increase of people accessing our Food Hamper program. Serving more than 20,000 people in recent months, we are in a great need of food to help fill the shelves.

On May 7th follow these easy steps to help contribute to the health of our community:

1. Watch your mailbox for your donation bag in late April coming with your subscription to the Saskatoon StarPhoenix.

2. Fill the bag with healthy non-perishable food donations. (Don’t get the StarPhoenix? Just pack a regular bag with non-perishable food and clearly label it for volunteers.)

3. Set your bag on your front doorstep by 10am on Saturday May 7th.

4. A large team of volunteers will set out into the Saskatoon neighbourhoods to collect from your doorstep between 10 am and 2 pm.

5. If you live in a condo/ apartment, or your bag is accidentally missed, please bring your donations to your nearest grocery store’s Saskatoon Food Bank & Learning Centre collection bin.

Big Night for a Little Park!

Join us on Tuesday, November 10th at 7:00 pm to experience a creative menu complimented with wines & liqueurs to support the upcoming park development on Clarence & 13th Street. Five pairings of fine food and tasty wines and liqueurs for $100 per person, at the Saskatoon Farmers Market.

Nutana is excited to have the opportunity to work with Chef Adam Patrick. The menu he has created for this event is going to be delicious! Tickets are available at: https://www.picatic.com/bigplanslittlepark

The Albert Recreational Unit has been a little park used by Nutana and Varsity View residents for over 70 years. While the park has served us well, it is beginning to show its age. We want to update the park and playground equipment to serve our neighbourhoods for generations to come. While the overall cost won’t be known until the a final design is approved, the City of Saskatoon, Nutana, and Varsity View Community Associations have all promised to support the project.

We may have big plans for our little park, but we believe that the neighbourhood deserves and will support a great little park like this!

Out of Your Tree fruit sharing co-op

Out of Your Tree in Saskatoon is an urban fruit sharing co-op.

GOAL: Keep edible produce from going to waste through cooperative harvesting before food ends up on the ground, in the compost or in the garbage

IDEA: Simple, a group of volunteers harvest the fruit. 1/3 is left with the home owner, 1/3 is donated and 1/3 is kept by the volunteers

ACTION: We need volunteers and we need produce. If you are interested in joining our harvesting team or if you have fruit bearing trees or other produce to share (rhubarb, apples, berries, vegetables, etc.) please register with us. Talk it up! The best way to get others involved is to ask them!

REWARDS: A great FLEXIBLE volunteer opportunity; get the kids involved. When a harvest opportunity comes in, we will contact the list of volunteers to see who is available. AND you get to take home fresh, locally grown produce. Excellent for the homeowner who gets their fruit harvested, contributes to the community and has less clean-up come fall.

Volunteers and tree owners can register online at http://outofyourtree.org and find us on Facebook.
