Okra up north: how a forgotten heirloom travelled the African diaspora to Toronto

6h 29m ago by piefed.zip/u/Ludicrous0251 in gardening from www.theguardian.com

Okra holds a special place in many African-descended communities, and a Canadian farmer with Jamaican roots is growing a very old variety

Thanks for sharing! Okra has the most beautiful flowers, it's really a fun one to add to the garden.

I want to shout out this other Toronto initiative: https://blackcreekfarm.ca/

There are lots of very exciting things happening with food sovereignty in the GTA.
