| Anniversary And/Or Other Special Events | This year featured several meaningful milestones and special events for our Society. We established a new Native Plant and Pollinator Garden at Sheridan College’s Davis Campus, with plans for continued expansion, strengthening our focus on environmental stewardship and education. We also partnered for the first time with the City of Brampton to deliver Backyard Gardening workshops for residents. Signature events, including Seedy Saturday, the Plant Sale, Flower Show, and community outreach activities, brought members and the public together, while hybrid meetings and new volunteer opportunities increased accessibility and participation across the Society. | ||||||||
