We are heartbroken to share the loss of Dr. Sheila Colla, an exceptional colleague, beloved friend, and an inspiration to us all.
Her passing leaves an immense void, as she was a driving force who united people to create meaningful, lasting change in the world.
Sheila worked tirelessly for social and environmental justice, and her efforts taught us invaluable lessons about life and respect for animals, plants, and humans alike.
As the cofounder and ecological leader of Finding Flowers, a project she initiated with Lisa Myers , Sheila explored innovative approaches to caring for pollinators and plant ecologies, pushing boundaries and bridging distant disciplines.
We are forever grateful for the opportunity to learn from Sheila's brilliance, profound compassion, and poignant humor. Her presence in our lives was a gift.
Rest in peace and power dear Sheila. ๐

More documentation of the re-planting of Mike MacDonaldโs butterfly garden at the MSVU Art Gallery last June.
This garden follows the design and plant composition that Mike created for the original garden in 1997. For this iteration, we sourced plants from local nurseries and received generous plant donations from the community!
We canโt wait to see this beautiful garden grow and transform throughout the seasons!
