Hello all, we hope you have been having a great winter - I'm sure you're ready for spring and itching to get into your gardens. We have a number of upcoming events to share with you to get you outside and engaging in nature.
Volunteer with us!

We have recently updated our volunteer platform to be streamlined and easy for you to use. Volunteer opportunities include farming on the Learning Farm, maintaining the communal hedgerows, and more!

We are hosting volunteers on the Sandown Learning Farm this Sunday, March 22, from 12pm - 3pm in collaboration with UVic ES480 students. We plan on prepping beds!
We are offering free transportation from UVic, or meet us at Sandown Centre. This is a half day session. Prepare to get dirty!
Save the date -
Tuesday, April 14th, 2pm - 3pm
the grand opening of the seed library at the Sidney/North Saanich Library!
We will be giving a presentation and doing a seed starting demo.

Are you struggling to know how to start your garden? How to build your soil? How to get great carrot germination? When to plat vegetables for overwintering?
Consider joining our Regenerative Gardener Course. We've got you covered!
This is an in person course on the first Monday of the month from May to September.
See what past participants had to say:

Lướt xuống chút có mấy khối dạng “Review / Visit” xếp gọn theo hàng, nhìn phát hiểu đây là chỗ họ tổng hợp đánh giá và thông tin khuyến mãi cơ bản. Mình không đọc sâu từng mục, nhưng kiểu chia nội dung theo block như vậy hợp với người chỉ muốn xem nhanh. Nói chung giao diện nhìn thoáng, chữ dễ đọc, và mấy ô “Review / Visit” nằm…
