Fall organic plant sale on Aug 16th!

July 31, 2014


Here at the Compost Education Centre, we always enjoy watching beautiful starts leave the sale to find their new homes in gardens around town.  We’ll be hosting our second plant sale of the year on Saturday August 16th from 10am-1pm.  This is a great opportunity to pick up some great veggie starts such as broccoli, kale and chard varieties for healthy winter eating!

Pollination Education Day on June 14th!

May 28, 2014


Without pollinators, humans and wildlife wouldn’t have much to eat! Bees, butterflies, wasps and even bats, ants, birds and beetles pollinate over 90% of the planet’s flowering plants and over 75% of human food crops.

Join us on Saturday June 14th from 10am-2pm for a day of education about creating habitat for pollinators, and what to plant in your garden to attract these valuable animals and insects.

We will also be hosting two free workshops:

Mason Bees from 10:00am-11:00am

Natural Beekeeping from 1:00pm-2:00pm

No registration is necessary, just come by and enjoy learning from local experts!
