Welcome to “Stories You Hear in the Park” by Meagan Downes, an audio experience that is part of the Future Food Visions project in Guelph, Ontario. The Future Food Visions project features nine audio experiences that respond to a broad range of food security and food justice issues in the Guelph-Wellington region.

This experience is intended to be taken in Royal City Park in Guelph, Ontario. You are welcome to listen to this audio from another location and to imagine the area discussed. If listening on site at Royal City Park, please begin the experience at the bandstand near Gordon St and Wellington St West, behind Goodness Me Natural Food Market. Pause the audio now if you need a moment to get there. In the following audio, you will be asked to move around. Feel free to follow these directions as you wish and are able.

After you listen to the audio experience, we invite you to continue your journey on the Future Food Visions website at ffvisions.ca. There is a follow up activity posted for you as well as a children’s activity pack related to the content of this experience.

Script editing by Stephen Donnelly, Julie Labagnara and Graeme McClelland.
