Feature Friday: Get to know the Orange Lily Group team 👨‍🍳👩‍⚕️

Meet our Garden Expert, Zoe!


Zoe started with The Giving Garden LTC Program in late summer 2020. She helps plan, prepare, and care for our LTC gardens and recently assembled a greenhouse for a LTC home with the help of our volunteer Jes! We’re grateful to have Zoe on our team and serving our residents ❤️

👵🌱 Why she loves working with plants and people:

I love the constant learning that comes from working with plants and people. Both are so much about paying attention, building relationship and learning to adapt

👩‍⚕️Professional Goals for 2021:

To grow lots of veggies and flowers and to find creative ways to share the growth and the harvest even during times where we can’t always be together in person.

🍓Favourite thing to eat:

Lately I’ve been dreaming of strawberry season! There’s nothing like a strawberry still warm from the sun.

📺Currently binging during quarantine:

I recently binged The Big Flower Fight on Netflix!

🙏Looking forward to most for 2021:

Harvest season!
