Who remembers this lil’ gem? Released just one month before the pandemic struck hard in March 2020, it was supposed to be the first of a regular pocket-sized series - a complement to our larger TOQUE rags. Lockdowns and closures and uncertainty put a stop to these lofty aspirations real quick - for the time being, at least! Who’d be keen for us to pick up where we left off? #printisnotdead

Our favourite shoots tend to happen when we find ourselves discovering, exploring and (ultimately) highlighting the quaintest workshops and most wonderful studios - whimsical places of work and passion. This morning we ended up in @downtownguelph at @dimarshoerepair where owner / master craftsperson Pablo Hadarits brought us into the heart of his fantastic shoe repair and leather business. The place has been serving its customers for 35 years now - first as Pablo’s dad Diego’s workshop and now as Pablo’s home away from home. Need repairs. Get to Dimar. And say hi from us! #shoplocal

What a great treat it was for the TOQUE team to visit Dr Karen Houle at the ‘Food from Home = Food for Home’ community garden / urban farm she co-founded a few years back. At present, this initiative - based in Guelph - provides garden plots for dozens of newcomers to Canada to grow vegetables and other crops from their homelands as a means of strengthening culture, enabling memory, and building community. This community garden initiative is one of many ways that ‘Our Food Future Guelph-Wellington’ is building innovative and essential circular food systems and economies for our region and beyond. Look out for a full piece in our upcoming ‘Food Issue’ - due out in October. #nomnom
