Helloooo IPP!
Thank you to everyone who came out to Granville Island this weekend! Our IPP Photo Scavenger Hunt was lots of fun and we saw some super awesome pictures. Congratulations to Daisuke and Kay’s Team, who won the photo scavenger hunt competition.
We had another fantabulous Saturday filled with:
-spelling out IPP-ing
-statue-mimicking
-reflections-capturing
-human-pyramid-ing
-make yourselves appear small-ing
-duck hunting (not actually hunting, just finding one to take a picture with)
-“I can’t believe we all fit in here”-ing
-and many more fun things
Here are some pictures of us at Granville Island:
For those of you who came, I’m sure you’re wondering how you can see all your wonderful pictures again. and for those of you who couldn’t come, I’m sure you’re still wondering how you can see all these awesome pictures we speak of. We have gathered the best 20-ish pictures and put them into a video, which will be up on this blog very soon. Keep an eye out for that!
Hearts for IPP!

Hi everyone !
Thank you so much for coming out to the farm. It was great to hang out with all of you and take in all the nature. The hamburgers were great.
For all of those interested in taking a further look into the importance of agriculture – especially in relationship to communities, take a look at the following documentary. The below documentary takes a deeper look into the UBC farm:
I hope to see you again soon !
