Although the Occupy Movement has remained under my radar for most of this year, some Facebook friends brought “Autumn Jam” in Toronto to my attention tonight. (Updated Sept. 30, 2012…see below).

“Autumn Jam” is a free potluck (bring fresh veggie dishes and re-usable wooden bowls and utensils), with musical entertainment in the evening and activities for adults and children.

“Occupy Gardens Toronto” to Host the 2012 “Autumn Jam”

Toronto’s Occupy Movement has actually remained active, but I have not noticed it in the news. While I did read about the one-year anniversary of the beginning of “Occupy Wall Street”, I simply had not been aware of this topic for months and months.

The accompanying photograph shows a lovely garden in a setting somewhere completely different from Queen’s Park in Toronto.

But Queen’s Park is the venue where the Occupy Gardens Toronto group planted a vegetable garden in the spring of 2012. The “People’s Peas Garden” was sown in the north-west portion of Queen’s Park.

This will also be the venue for “Autumn Jam”.

“Autumn Jam” combines celebrating the harvest with the raising of consciousness, a potluck (so bring some food to share), workshops, a “Kidz Korner” to which you should bring crayons and scrap paper, and more.

How did I Notice “Autumn Jam”?

Some Facebook friends shared a photo and news item from the Occupy Gardens Toronto site on Facebook. The news was that the City of Toronto dug up and “destroyed” a free community garden.

Was it time? Had the food been harvested already? Had Occupy Gardens Toronto already planned to shut down this garden for the winter?

When and Where is Autumn Jam 2012?

Occupy Gardens Toronto will hold Autumn Jam on Sat. Sept. 29, 2012, from noon to 9m in the north-west portion of Queen’s Park in Toronto.

I like this picture of King George IV’s statue in Queen’s Park, even though the event was a previous Afrofest festival that has since moved…but that’s another event, in a different month, and has since moved to a different park.

I found Occupy Gardens Toronto on Facebook; you probably need to be logged-in to your Facebook account to see the page properly.

The Occupy Toronto calendar has a wealth of information, although it might be easiest to search for “Autumn Jam” and click on that link to expand the entry.

I must admit that DeHaan Services does not often make public service announcements, or place a notice for Toronto events, where there is any risk that it might be labelled “civil disobedience” or where the participants run even the slightest risk of a confrontation with police.

“Autumn Jam” Updated Sept. 30, 2012

(Updated Sept. 30, 2012). The Globe and Mail‘s “City begins removal of five-month-old Occupy Toronto vegetable garden” presented some of this story on Sept. 28, but I hadn’t found this article by Renata D’Aliesio until now. This article included the following.

• City crews regularly perform autumn clean-ups in Toronto parks
• This garden was “illegal” but left alone for five months.
• Some two hundred people had tended the garden, including some harvesting.
• Besides the “Autumn Jam” on Saturday, there would be a protest at City Hall on Monday, Oct. 1, 2012.
