Planning for 2010

With the days getting shorter, and the wind getting colder - are we thinking about Spring planting already? Sure we are! Our first planning meeting for 2010 was held last week at the City of Pickering. Those in attendance learned from Carolyn about a number of opportunities to help out at the garden - and Garden Angels were born! Individual gardeners can sign up as caretakers (or should we say "worker bees") of one small aspect of the garden: from tending common beds, to making sure extra produce goes to the food bank, to planning events. There is plenty of opportunity to use your skills and talents. If you want to know more about the volunteer jobs available or have an idea for a new job - contact Carolyn. Check out the Garden Angel contact list below.
