A Generous Garden

By 29 April 2009 4 Comments

A reliable source informs me that a property owner in the Connaught Heights area would like to see an area of land used as a community garden of sorts. In true Royal City style, this currently anonymous owner is offering the space for interested gardeners, free of charge.

If you are one of the many New Westminsterites out there hankering to till the soil and raise your own veggies, but you don’t have a plot to plant in, contact us and we will pass on the info!

Simply leave a comment on this post. Leave your email on the comment form but not in the comment text. We will see your email but not the world. Use your first name somewhere so we know who to ask for and remember; serious inquiries only! If you know you will use the space all through the season, ask away. If not, help a neighbor pull weeds.

    I ran into a neighbour who was very interested – they aren’t online. Shall I email you a phone number or something?

    Perfect. Send over the info, I will pass it on. I understand the plot could support the aspirations of a few gardeners. wtomkinson (at sign) gmail (dot) com.
