Toronto Master Gardeners are hosting the 2023 virtual technical update via Zoom
Saturday, January 14, 2023 10am-2:30pm
Theme: ECOLOGICAL GARDENING PART 2: Digging deeper into our changing relationship with the garden.
More info & registration here: //www.torontomastergardeners.ca/technical-update-2023/
All May events at Riverwood are now cancelled, as well as some events in early June, due to the current pandemic.
We take some comfort in the fact that gardening is NOT cancelled and neither is Spring, so we’ll be busy in our own gardens in the meantime. But we are always available online for helpful advice.
And any of the Master Gardener groups would be happy to answer your gardening questions, just ask!
We are especially interested in promoting a renewal of the idea of Victory Gardens in 2020, as a way to provide food security, encourage healthy outdoor activity that allows for needed physical distancing, to give your kids a fun, educational project, help the environment, and so much more.
Check out our MMG social media for helpful times on how to #GetGrowing this season.
And we are hopeful that our proposed Fall Plant Sale 2020 might still be possible…check back for updates on our planned October event at the Port Credit Library.
Stay safe and healthy, Happy Gardening!
Presentations:
11 am – Pollination and Growing Native Plants
12 pm – Preparing Your Garden for Winter
See you there!
MMGs enjoyed a great outing to Whistling Gardens this past weekend. It was cool & grey out, but the gardens made up for it with great displays of colourful peonies, well over 1000 varieties!
