From Ecosource:

Are you interested in starting a community garden in your neighbourhood? Winter is the perfect time to start the planning process! Community gardens have the unique distinction of nourishing both plants and communities. Both sides of this equation need attention and care in order for a community garden to flourish. Whether you are planning a residential garden for your building, a community garden for to engage participants in your organization, or a school garden, this workshop will guide you through the community garden planning process, and outline best practices to ensure that the project is sustainable and successful.

To register for this event, please fill out the form on the Ecosource website, or call Anita at 905 274 6222 for more information.
