On Wednesday May 14th, the UBC Farm and our community of supporters will be coming together to celebrate the opening of our new yurt at the UBC Farm from 5:30-7:30pm. A special Indigenous Feast Bowl is done to mark the occasion. The Feast Bowl is a long-standing UBC Farm tradition where, once a month, students, faculty and staff harvest produce from the Indigenous Health Garden and then prepare a community meal together incorporating traditional indigenous foods.
They are recruiting 3-5 volunteers to help with the meal preparation. You would have to be available on Wed May 14 from 2:30-5:30pm. Please have any interested students/volunteers contact Sabrina Yan, Development Coordinator, at 604-822-0599 or at sabrina.yan@ubc.ca.
