Call for Volunteers: Join Us for a Gardening Clean-Up Day!

We’re excited to invite all green thumbs and nature enthusiasts to participate in our upcoming gardening clean-up day! This is a wonderful opportunity to give back to the community, connect with fellow gardening enthusiasts, and make a positive impact on the environment.

If you are a fan of the pollinator garden at Sackville Playground (at the entrance of the park), created by CRBA and a group of volunteers from Corktown, you can be a part of the creation of a second garden, this time on Sumach Street.

Event Details:

• Date: July 28, 2024
• Time: 9 am – noon
• Location: Meet us at the parking lot of Inglenook Community School on Sumach Street.
• Agenda: We will be cleaning up 3 of the boulevard-facing garden beds on the east side of the Community School, take out the existing shrubs and weeds in them, and prep the site for the creation of a pollinator garden, which will take place at another date in the early Fall.

 What to Bring:

• Gardening gloves
• Sunscreen
• Hat
• Water bottle
• Any gardening tools you may have (e.g., shovel, trowel, pruning shears) 

How to Participate: If you’re interested in joining us for a day of gardening fun and community spirit, please RSVP by July 25th by emailing info@corktown.ca
