🌱 Planting Party 🌱

Mycelium has a new community garden plot! Join us for our first garden event as we plant vegetables, herbs, and native flowers! To learn more about our garden plot, check out this post. 

This free event is open to queer and trans youth aged 16-29. RSVPs required!

😷: This event is entirely outdoors and is mask-optional. If you are/have been sick in the last 10 days or have been exposed to people who are sick, we ask that you attend another event in the future. Thank you for helping us take care of each other! 

♿: There are no steps or stairs leading to the park. The park has gravel paths and the paths between each garden bed are filled with wood chips. The Mycelium garden bed itself is a raised garden bed directly attached to the ground and is not wheelchair accessible. There is a separate community-wide wheelchair-accessible plot next to the Mycelium plot. There is 1 wheelchair-accessible, all-genders washroom next to the community garden (approx. 1 minute away). We will be eating dinner on a wooden picnic bench. Accessibility information about this bench will be updated by April 26. If your needs to access this event are not mentioned here, please contact Jessamyn at [email protected]. Please note that we are in the process of updating our website to make accessibility info easier to share with us. Thank you for your patience.

🍴: If you have dietary needs, please contact us 1 week before the event. 

Mycelium 

Mycelium is a space for queer & trans youth 16-29 across what is colonially known as BC. We gather to center healing, pleasure, and justice in our lives as we envision and create a world liberated from HIV & Hep C stigma. 

We are committed to reducing stigma related to HIV & Hep C and to building communities where we feel safe talking about the highs and lows of sex, drugs, relationships and all the things that bring us pleasure.
