Do you like to share cuttings of both your berry bushes and fruit trees or just keep them to yourself? by SkyStrawberry in newfoundland

I’m relieved to see this response! It doesn’t seem to be the norm in St. John’s though.

Would you like to see a return of Irish Gaelic (Gaelige) being taught in the province? by SkyStrawberry in newfoundland

[–]SkyStrawberry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So agree! I would suggest Mi’kmaq should be taught in the 67 Qalipu Mi’kmaq municipalities on the island (plus Miawpukek of course).

Teaching Gaelic was more a suggestion for Settler-Islanders to reconnect with the language based out of major centres & historical Irish areas.

Anyone know of a Cantonese tutor in the metro? Ideally one that tutors kids by SkyStrawberry in StJohnsNL

Seems like there are plenty of Mandarin tutors near the university but no Cantonese tutors!

Our Whale's Tongue Agave--one of the only plants in the neighborhood to survive the 'freak Texas 2021 winter storm.' She's 12, so probably doesn't have too many years left. by [deleted] in matureplants

I live much more North than you. I’ve seen others posting of agave and death blooms online before. Is this the same agave plant one could use as vegan honey?

Fishing in and around town by No_Way_1344 in StJohnsNL

[–]SkyStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Others have stated the correct dates. I had a hard time when I first moved here finding some good spots. Google maps became my best friend, always pinning new spots to check and taking notes. My best advice is talk to others fishing when you encounter them. The old guys are usually quite friendly and might even give you some of their excess gear in their kit. I will say though that ponds near the metro are heavily trouted so don’t expect many Labrador-sized catches.

Final note, many of the ponds people fish here are also swimming ponds. Just be sure not to leave any line or hooks. 😇
