Summer night festivities in our beloved Chinatown.
Organized by RE:VITA
Sponsored by the City of Edmonton
Chinatown Cleanup
RE:VITA’s monthly cleanups are one of the simplest — and most important — things they do.
The cleanups aren’t just about tidying streets. They’re about showing care for place, building pride, and creating low-barrier ways for people to show up for Chinatown together. Cleanups always end with shared meals and conversations that often spark new ideas and relationships.
Monthly on the second Saturday, gather at 10:45 at CO*LAB - 9641 102A Ave

Community Leagues as Climate Hubs
We're looking for Edmonton residents to share their insights to shape the Climate Resilience Hubs Pilot Project.
We are looking for Community League members and residents from all corners of the city to share their insights and feedback that will directly shape the Climate Resilience Hubs Pilot Project- a vital new program dedicated to supporting and protecting our city's most vulnerable community members.
The project is designed to explore the feasibility of equipping Community Leagues with the resources, equipment, processes and training to be able to function as safe spaces during times of extreme weather, power outages, and days with poor air quality. Implementing this program will mitigate health risks for the city’s most vulnerable, including children, the elderly and people with pre-existing health conditions.
We are inviting residents with knowledge of Community Leagues to participate in our focus group session on October 8, 2026, at the North Glenora Community League Hall (13535– 109A Avenue, T5M 3Z4), from 6:30-8:00pm.
Refreshments will be served and childminding services will be available. Please reach out to greenleagues@efcl.org if you have questions. We are looking forward to receiving your input, and seeing you there!
Hybrid option available.

Brewed by Hand creative craft night
Creative Craft Night
All mediums welcome (knitters, beat artists, and bedazzlers welcome!)
First Friday of every month from 6:00-9:30
Food Preservation 101: Crab Apple Preserve
With rising food prices, saving money while still finding healthy and delicious food is becoming more challenging than ever. Meanwhile, the average Canadian household wastes 79 kg of food annually, and the country wastes on average 46% of all food. Preventing food waste is a simple action that individuals can take to increase food sovereignty and food security. And food preservation is one of the best ways to prevent food waste, especially during the fall harvest season, when produce is plentiful and at its peak!
To create an accessible way to learn about food preservation, Earth's Refillery Coop, Edmonton Horticultural Society, and New Grocery Movement are holding a 3-part Food Preservation 101 Series!
The final class we will learn about making crab apple preserves. Participants will learn about food safety, how to replicate this easy method at home, and take home a couple jars of crab apple jelly. We will be providing all of the tools and supplies for the class.
We can't wait to have you join us on this food sovereignty journey!

Soil Succession Workshop
Come and learn how to make the best soil for the plants you want to grow in your from a garden master composter and master gardener.
Our master gardener and master composter will show us how to provide the best and correct soil conditions to grow the foods you want to grow in your soil.
Some plants like full sun, some like partial shade, some like lots of moisture while others like it a little on the dry side. Certain plants like different soil conditions and with this knowledge we can help our plants thrive.
The status quo of simply adding a generic fertilizer with high N-P-K numbers are counter productive for good soil health, especially long-term.
Feed the soil corrtly and the plants will grow well.
Our very knowledgeable workshop presenter is a master composter and master gardener. Come and learn and grow!
Our cafe will be open for beverages and food until 6:30pm.

Sugarcane - Thoughtful Tuesday Film Screening
Sugarcane’ is a compelling 2024 documentary that delves into the harrowing legacy of the Canadian Indian residential school system,
"Sugarcane’ is a compelling 2024 documentary that delves into the harrowing legacy of the Canadian Indian residential school system. The film investigates the discovery of unmarked graves at St. Joseph's Mission near Williams Lake, British Columbia, bringing to light the physical and sexual abuses endured by Indigenous children.
The narrative intertwines personal stories with a broader historical context, showcasing the strength and unity of a community confronting its painful past. ‘Sugarcane’ not only exposes the atrocities committed but also celebrates the enduring spirit of Indigenous peoples as they heal and reclaim their cultural identity. This poignant film serves as a testament to their perseverance and the ongoing fight for recognition and reconciliation." from Documentary Area.
Thoughtful Tuesday is a film/documentary screening series hosted and curated by Earth's Refillery & Cafe Coop. As a community, we watch a film/documentary, and then discuss what we watched, what we felt, and how that will inspire us to act.
Coffee, tea, drinks, and food will be available for purchase until 6pm.
