Container Gardening

March 22nd, 2009 No comments

The refurbished Roy Duncan Park will have a community garden, run by members of the community, where neighbours can meet and work together to care for the garden. In addition to helping with food security and nutrition, residents of Van Lang are interested in having container planting on their balcony. A workshop on successful container gardening is being planned and is open to everyone interested. And it’s FREE! The workshop will be held on:

Food Security

May 30th, 2008 No comments

Food Security for all of us is important, but it is of special importance for our neighbours in the Van Lang and Taiga Housing. The WBCA has applied for a grant to start a communal community garden on the Van Lang property. The residents have also expressed a wish to grow their own herbs and vegetables on their balcony, and hence this call for plant containers. We hope you will consider donating spare containers. Please drop them off at Bonnie’s at the corner of Churchill and Lanark at 330 Lanark.
