Happy holidays

Hello Fellow gardeners,

I first want to take this opportunity to wish you all a very safe, warm and Happy Holidays.  Thank you for making it another great year at the Granville & 7th garden.  All the hard work and fresh veg pumping out of the garden kept me inspired throughout this growing season.  Well done! This season was like no other. With the onset of COVID 19 and the management of it I know most of you found solace in the garden and we are very grateful for you all sticking to the health guidelines. 

December has arrived and with it the winter season begins!  The temperatures are sure to dip below zero more often and with the prediction of an El Nina winter, we should see large amounts of precipitation over these winter months. It’s a great month to reflect on the 2020 growing season and start planning what you want to grow next season.

Here’s a quick rundown of the garden updates:

  • WATER IS OFF

  • NEXT YEAR

  • GARDEN HOURS

  • TIDY UP

  • HELP US GROW


WATER IS OFF

As you've most likely seen, the water has been shut off at the garden for the winter months.  It will be turned back on in the spring of 2021 when the last frost has passed.

NEXT YEAR

As everyone knows, this community garden is a temporary one. We hope to continue the garden into 2021 and if another season goes ahead, you will of course keep your beds from this year. Look for an update in the coming months.

GARDEN HOURS

Despite the days being short and the weather being cold and wet, the garden will remain open all through the winter. Feel free to frequent the space any time you like.

TIDY UP

Thank you to all who have made it to the garden to clear out and tidy your beds.  If you haven’t yet, please set aside some time to get to the garden and remove any dead plants from your beds and place them in the green waste bin.  We also require you to remove any extra pots you’ve placed around your beds. Please do this by the end of the year.
