Here's the event slideshow.

1st #NorthAfrican #Cookout at Fed Farm in #Vicwest. Absolutely fabulous community event! Lots of delicious #Moroccan & #Tunisian foods were cooked & given to guests to eat. Many stories shared. Beautiful acoustic music was played. Wonderful new local BIPOC connections were made & some lovely reunions occurred too. I had a really great time!

Most folks who came out had similar displacement backgrounds. Several of us are war survivors who lost our family homes overseas & are far from many family members(my Mom's side is stuck in remote offgrid village) who are still living in our homelands. It was good for our souls to be around fellow POC diaspora. We understand each other better than others do because of similar life experiences from before coming to Canada. We also faced similar struggles/racism when we came to Canada as refugees of wars.

I am looking forward to helping them out more at some future community connecting events & grassroots projects in the near future.

Medium shot, eye-level view of a blue cooler overflowing with various fresh herbs, dominating the center of the frame. The herbs vary in colors and textures, ranging from bright green leafy types to darker purple basil. In the foreground, an array of small, potted seedlings are arranged in a semi-circle. A propane tank and a tote bag with text on in are partially seen on the left, adding depth. The ground is covered in wood chips and pebbles, providing a natural texture. In mid ground white wildflowers. The composition is balanced, focusing on the freshness and abundance of the herbs and seedlings.
