| Fundraisers | At our annual flower show in August, for the past 2 years, we have asked some members to bring in flowers from their garden. We use these flowers to make up 3 bouquets and raffle them off at the end of the day. | ||||||||
| Highlights | EYGC enjoyed a lively year of learning, community, and gardens. Monthly meetings featured expert speakers on houseplants, native stewardship, vertical vegetables, clematis, mini-hostas, tools, and urban trees, alongside flower shows, seed exchange, and our AGM awards night. Highlights included pop-up garden tours, a successful Shed Sale and Plant Sale, the Annual Flower Show, a Whistling Gardens road trip, Canada Day Parade, Legion gardening, and strong volunteer spirit—celebrating friendship, growth, and the joy of gardening. | ||||||||
