SUMMARY:(A 90s Spin on) A Midsummer Night's Dream
DESCRIPTION:“Forest Heights Community School presents Shakespeare’s comedy about how foolish love can be. \n\n\n\nInstead of taking place in Ancient Greece like the original play\, our story takes place in 1996 in Maine. A group of teenagers ends up lost in the woods one night. Hermia and Lysander are trying to get away from Hermia’s overbearing father. Helena is chasing after Demetrius\, who dumped her over a voicemail and only has eyes for Hermia. A dysfunctional teen rock band is enjoying a band-bonding camping trip that goes terribly wrong. Out in the forest\, where the veil between reality and the dream world is thin\, creatures from the fairy realm take an interest in this silly human drama and begin to interfere for their own entertainment.”

A food forest is designed to resemble a forest ecosystem in which different types of perennials (trees\, shrubs\, herbs\, and flowers) are planted together to perform different functions such as help fertilize the soil\, attract pollinators\, offer shade\, repel pests\, etc. In a food forest\, most of the plants are perennial and many are native to the region. Explore our young food forest at Bluenose Academy\, and help us add more plants in 2024! We will guide you to plant a few more trees and lots of shrubs and perennials in diverse layers and guilds\, rather than rows. This is a hands-on Learn & Work Party\, in which you will learn-by-doing\, working with fellow community members to raise our young little food forest! Activities will include digging\, shovelling\, wheelbarrowing\, spreading and moving organic material.
