Rav Singh / Shade of Miti and Jane Hayes / Hoffmann Hayes are partnering with the Ontario Parks Association to offer Community Gardens Workshops on Cultivating Food and Community.
The workshop is geared toward municipalities thinking about starting or revitalizing a community garden program. We’ll addresses logistics, operations, costs, and community engagement concerns as well as:
- Types of community gardens, and community garden programs, and their benefits;
- Garden site selection and criteria;
- Policy considerations;
- Garden programming (supports, funding, resources, target audiences, etc.).
See more info on the Nov 13th OPA session HERE. Please share with any municipality friends or contacts that you think may be interested. Note that the workshop can be delivered in person, or online, and is certified by OPA.
