FROM THE EDITOR
Happy April, and welcome to our “green” issue. With Earth Day upon us, we thought there’s no better time to delve into all things green. Green thumbs, green initiatives, green salads—we’re even green with envy. You will be, too, when you see the adorable upcycled cushion we made for this month’s DIY project.
But before you get makeful, come with us on a virtual trip to the St. Albert Potters’ Guild—the inspiration for this month’s photo essay. And since no “green” issue would be complete without mention of gardening, we’re profiling Hole’s Greenhouses & Gardens, a much-loved destination in our -community for nearly 60 years.
Eager to dig in? Nothing could make us happier… except for maybe announcing this: we’ve welcomed two new members to our team! As of this month, Jennie Drent and Robert Michon have joined our T8N family as editorial interns. We couldn’t be more excited to have them along and look forward to all they will bring to our T8N -community. We can’t wait to share their talents with you.
Happy April to all (and we’re not foolin’).
