The LifeCycles Fruit Tree Project team picked almost 9,000 lbs of apples this past week. We'll be sorting them all over 4 shifts on Tuesday & Friday. They'll be distributed through out the community.
We have begun processing B-grade apples into juice! Starting in October, we will be selling jars of juice through the #SouthIslandFarmHub. To receive a discount code for 10% off, register for #GoByBikeWeek and bike to Welland Orchard between September 23rd and October 6th. Log your ride to receive the discount.
#CommunitySharing Day on September 28th is our harvest party, volunteer appreciation, and outreach day all wrapped into one. Expect apple pressing, free fruit, heritage apple tasting, and more! More information is available here.

This is a great day to bike to Welland, as parking is limited, and the spots closest to Welland will be reserved for accessible parking.
Come by & see me during Go By Bike Week outreach booth at UVic on October 2nd, 9:45am-12:15pm. Learn about what we do & enjoy free samples of our new fruit juices!
Come out with your family & friends to enjoy free orchard tours & sample some fresh fruits from #WellandCommunityOrchard
Our annual #CommunitySharing Day is our way to celebrate the urban #orchard, as well as distribute extra #fruit at the peak of the season! We will have activities including #tasting #HeritageApple varieties, a #ScavengerHunt, #OrchardTours, #CiderPressing, asking a #FruitTeee expert and of course there will be fruit to take home.
Let us know if you are a volunteer and we will have a little something extra for you! Fruit will be available to anyone who comes to the event until we run out.
Come check out what we're all about, and spend some time at the wonderful Welland Orchard. We encourage you to arrive by bike - we are partnering with #GoByBikeWeek this year. If you are registered with #GoByBike and bike to the event, you will unlock an exciting discount for a to be announced preserve we will be producing this fall.

Have you ever participated in #GoByBikeWeek? Well, I'm the Treasurer for GoByBikeBC and I am really excited that something really really big just happened for us.
We just got Charity status!
The Government of BC has always been our primary funder but today marks a new chapter!
So if you'd like to contribute, please donate! Every little bit counts and it goes towards putting on great Bike events in communities all over the province!
Hey BC folks! If you have a bike, get out and ride this week! It's GoByBike Week! You don't even have to take it to work, you can Go By Bike anywhere! The Park, the Store, just around the block.
Get out there and have fun. And when you come back, register your ride on the website and you'll be entered to win some great prizes!

I am a volunteer Board member of GoByBikeBC Society. It’s pretty awesome to be part of and this week is our big spring #GoByBikeWeek event! But I have to be honest, I wanted to ride my bike to work (at least part way in my 80km commute) but I don’t want to subject my 45yr old lungs to that wildfire smoke and I don’t want to encourage others to either. If the Air Quality is poor in your location, please consider your health first. #climateChange
