Join us

November 8th, 2023 at 6:30 – 8:30pm 

Learn about the steps involved in starting a community garden, including how to search for land, what is essential when starting a community garden, the support available, tips for organizing and much more!

Suitable for new gardens, or existing gardens looking to onboard new volunteer coordinators.

The attendance of at least one garden coordinator (or a member of the garden who is working on the proposal) at a How to Start a Community Garden workshop is a requirement in order to apply for funding through the Community Garden Development Fund (CGDF). The CGDF applicant must have attended a workshop in the past 3 years, as criteria and processes have changed throughout the years, and we encourage more than one to attend at a time.

To register please contact cgnstudent@justfood.ca – a confirmation email will be sent upon registration.

Please note: This workshop is being delivered in English. Should you wish to be added to a list to be informed when a French session is scheduled, please contact cgnstudent@justfood.ca
