Her small suburban garden is certified by the Canadian Wildlife Federation as wildlife habitat. Rebecca grows a dozen or more varieties of heritage tomatoes every year. Her garden design includes elements of permaculture and she has been honoured to receive several awards from the Ontario horticulture community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from getting her hands dirty, Rebecca is also passionate about the science behind gardening. Not a scientist herself, a big part of her career was translating science into terms that would resonate with the public. Now retired, she uses these same skills to share what she learns about gardening and plant science via her blog Gardening at Last (<a href=\"https:\/\/gardeningatlast.ca\/\">https:\/\/gardeningatlast.ca\/<\/a>). She also shares her own research and writing on ResearchGate (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/profile\/Rebecca-Last\">https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/profile\/Rebecca-Last<\/a>), where her publications have garnered over 10,000 reads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rebecca\u2019s gardening addiction is enabled by her loving husband Richard and a collection of very spoiled rescue cats.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_event_type":[],"cu_event_audience":[78,81,82],"class_list":["post-20142","cu_event","type-cu_event","status-publish","hentry","cu_event_audience-faculty","cu_event_audience-staff","cu_event_audience-staff-faculty"],"acf":{"cu_event_start_date":"2024-08-23 12:00:00","cu_event_end_date":"2024-08-23 13:00:00","cu_event_location_type":"in-person","cu_event_meeting_address_type":"on-campus","cu_building":"ML","cu_event_meeting_room":"482","cu_event_meeting_address_full":null,"cu_event_virtual_type":"tbd","cu_event_virtual_meeting_link":"","cu_post_thumbnail":"wheat","cu_event_cost":"","cu_event_registration":"","cu_event_secondary_button":"","cu_event_contact_name":"Healthy Workplace","cu_event_email":"healthyworkplace@cunet.carleton.ca","cu_event_phone":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/20142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/20142\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20782,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/20142\/revisions\/20782"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_event_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_type?post=20142"},{"taxonomy":"cu_event_audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthy-workplace\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_audience?post=20142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
