The program now has a drop-in option!

Hello Friends of SLUGS!

Drop-in SLUGS

Too busy to do SLUGS??  Exciting news!  You can now take the SLUGS workshops without committing to the whole Feb-Sept season.  Anyone can come at any time. (Cost for drop-in is $5).  Check out the workshop line-up below to pick out the workshops you want to do!

Cheaper SLUGS!

We got a grant!! Now, you can also join up for the Full Season at anytime for only $175!! - with bursaries available

Field Trips

For full-season participants or folks who regularly come to workshops, there will be seven awesome Saturday fieldtrips to local farms, ecovillages, and gardens to check out what is happening around Victoria. (See line-up below.)

Why the Change?

We received a lot of feedback from youth that they were super excited about the program, but too incredibly busy with school and clubs and all the amazing stuff that you are all committed to already.  This way, you can come when it works for you – and bring friends to join in the fun!

Also, we received 2 generous grants from the Lifecycles Project Society and VanCity enviroFund, which has allowed us to expand and improve the program and make it more accessible to anyone who wants to take part!

Wait, what is SLUGS again?
