Smoke and metallic fear ran through our veins and the only way to survive was to dump more fear on your neighbour, in hopes of emptying your own vessel with the rotting stuff. The people who introduced the fear had reserves- a century's supply of little metallic capsules filled with liquid panic. They'd push it into us and watch the chaos fold from on high. Over time, we fed ourselves the capsules thinking it was all we deserved. Thinking it would keep them strong, the Fear People swallowed many capsules themselves, and soon we all were filled with the disease. We got used to it. This is how we related to each other. This is how we related to ourselves. When the world fell apart, the Fire Tenders were the first to appear. They blew the fear out of our veins with a simple phrase, from before the time of the Fear People: make of yourself a light. The Fire Tenders blew on the embers and found the thing before the fear, they found the unique and complex light in each of us. Everyone set out to do work. Their work. The work of their light. Everything took a long time but time and each other were all we had. Slowly, our bodies changed. Fire filled out veins and we burned bright with our own unique and complex light. As greetings, we blew on each other's embers, and our fires would mingle. We touched foreheads with the soil, with our plants, everything glowed. We looked for each other and saw each other all the time. The Fire Tender took light from all of us to light the new New World. When we had hard decisions to make, we consulted the Fire Tenders' fire like an oracle, for it contained all our wisdom. Sometimes the fire in our veins would pump out through our orifices- runny fire noses, coughs that set tissues alight. The Fire Tenders had a special vessel for these occasions. Drops of our unique fires were collected, and they hardened into seeds. Over time, we started noticing a mark on everyone's forehead- a seed-shaped hole. It was lined with the metallic stuff- which had ceased to rule our world but had never fully gone away. When the holes in our foreheads grew big, we greeted each other with kindness and traded seeds. We coaxed the holes smaller with these seeds of care, these precious gifts. We let our unique and complex lights mingle, until the fires in each of us roared again.

and abundance. And like all living trees, it provides food, shelter, and materials that support our survival. Being in relationship with every part of this plant reminds us of our connection to the land and its resilience. The banana tree represents nourishment, reciprocity, and resilience through everyday labor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/134c95c2-d13f-47b9-8175-a097e11e7d7e/Dahlia Garden Imagery - Dahlia The dahlia is Mexico’s national flower. Valued for its diversity, strength, and beauty, the dahlia reflects the richness of Mexican identity and its deep connection to the natural world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/26481b09-ee35-4a35-be0b-bbd95c433034/Flicker Garden Imagery - Flicker The flicker is one of the first signs of spring in the garden. Perched on top of a lamppost, drilling away, they broadcast the message, “I am here! Spring is here too!” The flicker’s style and presence reflect creative fire, the colour and life that artists bring to the neighbourhood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/fdf67325-162a-47b5-af65-d919779c8282/Magpie Garden Imagery - Magpies Magpies are known for their intelligence, adaptability, and strong social bonds. They are constant witnesses- observing, remembering, and responding. Often mischaracterized, magpies reflect survival through cleverness, protection, and community care, reminding us that relational knowledge is a form of strength. Together, these images speak to a way of knowing that is relational rather than extractive. They affirm that while we live and create on different lands, there are deep connections and lessons to be learned through our relationships with nature. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/8c25c124-53c3-42ac-ab80-006c6e966484/Peas Garden Imagery - Peas Pea shoots embody the joy and surprise you feel when a seed goes from a tiny package of potential to a growing, developing thing. In their liveliness they keep climbing and putting out little tendrils to wrap on to whatever they can reach, always finding creative ways to adapt and support themselves. The vines spill out of their assigned spaces and refuse borders and boundaries. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/626ab5ba-2c53-4e84-b33f-fad7cdb9006d/Sunflower Garden Imagery - Sunflower The sunflower represents warmth, resilience, and freedom, echoing its symbolism on the Philippine flag. While the sunflower is not Indigenous to the Philippines, it is widely grown there and on Turtle Island, symbolizing adaptation and survival- how diasporic peoples learn to root themselves in new soil while remaining oriented toward growth and care. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/f70d9514-5592-4483-921a-be2621f66355/Bees Garden Imagery - Bees Bees exist across many parts of the world, including the Philippines and Canada. Their presence reminds us that life is upheld through collective effort, cooperation, and interdependence.Their essential work mirrors the often unseen labor carried out by care workers, whose attention to others and collective well-being has made survival possible across generations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/8e2da233-a651-4b82-b27e-cba7c9710f0c/Eggplant Garden Imagery - Eggplant Eggplant isn’t a common sight in Mohkinstsis gardens. The diverse cultivars reveal shared roots and the cultural interconnections existing between the Subcontinent, East Asia, and North and East Africa long before European colonization or contemporary globalization. Getting this heat-loving tropical to flourish here isn’t easy, and it’s a symbol that diasporic people can thrive here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/8ac95a99-4424-48a0-a648-2685399b5e0d/Hummingbird Garden Imagery - Hummingbird The hummingbird is a deeply symbolic and traditional presence in Mexican culture. Growing up in Mexico, hummingbirds were a constant sight—moving through gardens and urban spaces alike. Depicted here, they represent vitality, resilience, and living memory carried through motion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/92ab7894-2a89-42e5-b572-383e863acbf7/Moths Garden Imagery - Moths The moth, a quiet nocturnal being found across both lands, symbolize transformation, movement, and the ability to navigate darkness. Often misunderstood, the moth reflects diasporic survival - moving between worlds, guided by instinct and memory. In the Philippines, children are taught never to harm a moth, as it may be a relative coming to greet you. Carrying this belief across lands becomes a reminder that our relatives are always nearby. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/7472a5e9-eff7-4793-b666-60684891276a/Shaggy+Mane Garden Imagery - Shaggy Mane The shaggy mane represents the endless potential buried in the soil, the power of life and the way that water can transform the landscape. Shaggy mane mushrooms always surprise and delight me. They are so transient, popping up seemingly from nowhere, and then slowly melting away back into the earth. They show that there is always more going on underneath the surface than we realize. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/28c5a13a-b65f-41f8-8fac-9fe299d437ef/Vanilla Garden Imagery - Vanilla The vanilla is a plant native to Mexico with significant cultural and historical importance. Rooted in Indigenous knowledge and local ecosystems, vanilla represents both cultural legacy and fragility, as it faces increasing environmental and agricultural pressures today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/cce23d82-972e-4cee-835e-d8dac464fb11/Vole Garden Imagery - Vole When people first spot the voles in the garden, sometimes nestled down in the compost pile, they often think they are mice. To me the voles are a symbol of the many different meanings that the garden space holds. It is a home and a welcome to people in so many different ways. And although the voles cause havoc with their own uninvited harvesting, they do belong here too. They are a reminder that a healthy garden community makes room for outsiders - and a little chaos, too. https://www.openhearts.ca/acpc daily 0.75 2026-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/1759367635880-3GPVYG0YXTLNCXGI3MNF/IMG_1933.jpeg Acadia Creative Placemaking https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/1759367578200-RVSBR13OLHIM7GTXKF4T/94F0469F-E3EE-4F21-8700-940C70C2BB0C_1_105_c.jpeg Acadia Creative Placemaking https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/1759367601732-7HG7NR34LJX4NEGSMUQZ/20240705_102726.jpg Acadia Creative Placemaking https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fd128fe4b0a7a097c55b32/1759367927333-I2YJJHJTEP4NROCORC8G/0DB6AB06-80CD-4D5E-8757-AB1D3E5D0AC6_1_105_c.jpg Acadia Creative Placemaking
