CABBAGETOWN IN THE NEWS

The popular website toronto.com has created a section entitled Toronto Time Capsule, a growing collection of news stories, photographs, genealogy resources and columns from local historical experts all dedicated to Toronto’s rich and colourful history. Gilles Huot, a member of the CPA board and of the Cabbagetown People team, has been contributing columns on Cabbagetown, often sourcing his stories from the Cabbagetown People material and research he does in preparation for the walking tours he leads.

CPA Publications

Bracha Stettin, Trees & Time: Connecting to the ecological history of Cabbagetown. What was the ecology of Cabbagetown like before settler urbanization and development? If we look closely, what are the traces or remains of the vegetative past? What were the trees, shrubs, and mosses that softened the ground, filtered the water, fed the people, and sweetened the air? What does this past mean for the future?
