We're very happy to welcome the Honourable Lana Popham, Minister of Agriculture and Food, to this week's episode! If you've learned anything by now, you'll know that since Michele became the Podcast Lead on Amazing Places, she doesn't really “do” politics, even with a government minister on the show. Instead, she wants to talk about what is growing in Lana's garden this Spring! Lana's roots (pun fully intended) stretch back to growing up on Quadra Island, where growing food, raising animals, and harvesting from the sea was a way of life. She continued this closeness to the land when she co-founded and operated Barking Dog Vineyard, the first certified organic vineyard on Vancouver Island. She has been an amazing advocate for food producers and food security for many years. So we were curious about her own garden and what her gardening secrets and tips might be; and Lana generously shared her trowel and errors with us. Good news - the horseradish is surviving! So grab a piece of paper and pen for taking notes, and listen along as we talk green thumbs and clean fingernails.

A shortage of temporary foreign workers has prompted the Ministry of Agriculture to launch a website, for jobs related to food production. The BC Farm, Fish and Food Job Connector has 600 jobs posted, ranging from forklift operators to berry pickers. The Minister of Agriculture says the food sector in BC needs up to 8000 labourers this season. Lana Popham says most of those jobs would have been filled by temporary foreign workers, but this year, only 1500 such workers are in the province.Many Parks Canada sites are set to reopen for day use, starting on June the 4th. Pacific Rim National Park will open some beaches, parking lots and trails near Long Beach, but the Parks Canada website does not specify which ones. Currently, all access is forbidden, all washrooms and parking lots are closed. Overnight camping in some limited areas of Pacific Rim park may be open by the third week in June, but no final decisions have been made. The Gulf Islands National Park Reserve is also set to reopen for day visits one week from today, but the ferry passenger service from Sidney Spit is closed indefinitely, as are several docks and boat launches. The Parks Canada website says trails and day-use areas on the Gulf Islands sites are not being maintained and people are warned they use them at their own risk. The West Coast Trail and camping in the Broken Group Islands will likely remain closed for the entire season. Parks Canada has respected the requests by area first nations, to keep those sites closed, but will revisit the issue in July.Nanaimo residents are reminded to round up their invasive plants in preparation for a free drop zone on Saturday.

BC's Provincial Health Officer says the survey will help health planners with managing next-steps in the pandemic. The survey closes on Sunday.This update is brought to you by the Local Journalism Initiative of the Community Radio Fund of Canada, Heritage Canada as well as listeners like you.
