What's Toque and Trowel all about? At its heart, it’s about finding resilience and empowerment in everyday actions. I believe that tending a garden can be an act of resistance. Creating nourishing, affordable meals – maybe even using what you've grown or simple, easy to find, budget-friendly ingredients from suppliers of your choice – that's resistance too.
And maybe most important... protecting your mental well-being, especially when life feels overwhelming, you're burnt out, or just really busy? That's absolutely a form of resistance and what we've been exploring on this podcast.
We'll be discussing practical ways to do all of this. We'll also be weaving in a focus on supporting Canadian gardeners, producers, and communities, which feels really important to me right now. I'm probably not alone on this.
