Crossroads Educational Vegetable Garden – Harvest Time
September 16, 2017 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Join us for the big Fall Harvest of the Crossroads Educational Vegetable Garden from 10:00am to 12:00am on Saturday, September 16th (rain or shine) – three weeks before Thanksgiving! Over the summer, garden volunteers have already harvested over 160 pounds of Swiss chard, kale, carrot and beets. We should have a bumper crop at this year’s harvest.
The garden is maintained by volunteers from Transition Bay St Margarets and the St Margarets Bay Food Bank. It is intended to inspire one and all in the values, health and quality benefits of ‘Grow Your Own’ vegetables. The garden rekindles the fact that most residents maintained gardens decades ago. Local food resilience helps to build a strong local economy. The Garden is one of many projects of Transition Bay St Margarets (see: www.transitionbay.ca).
