Fall is Falling! In Drops! An Update at the Garden

-
Hello,

It seems that Fall has come all at once, bringing rain and a chill to the air. It seems that our gardeners are busy taking advantage of the clear days with final harvesting, and some back breaking soil turnover. 

Our garden has been re-gifted some picnic tables from another Community Garden that does not have need for them. They are rainbow coloured and require assembly but we happily took them to re-paint and assemble. Paint colour will be determined by the paint store that can provide free or really discounted and environmentally safe! If you could pick...which colour would you pick?

You can let us know on Facebook! Yes we have a page on Facebook! Just search for dunsmuir community garden, bc

have a great weekend!

Hello Dunsmuir Garden members, There are activities this week that everyone needs to be aware of: 1.

If you wish to obtain your new card please look for it there. Please only take your card. 2.  On Thursday March 26 the City of Surrey will be blocking the road at our driveway in order to remove trees that were felled and bucked up some time ago. The garden will remain open but there will be no vehicle traffic permitted while this work is underway. 3. Please review the attached  Bee Announcement prepared by Bee Coordinator Dave Hoffman. Also, review Asian Giant Hornet Alert from the Province of BC. 4. Currently Blackie Spit Park remains open as does the Dunsmuir Gardens.

Whew... we have made it through a challenging season and we wish you all a very Happy Holiday Season and want to extend our warmest regards and safe wishes during this difficult time. We still managed to complete an awful lot this year and the garden is looking fabulous! Many of us dug in to keep the grounds organized and tidy and many little and big jobs have been tackled.  Apple Trees We have Apple Trees! Our President worked together with both Vancity Savings and the City of Surrey to create our new APPLE ORCHARD! Yes!! Our awesome Apple Co-ordinators purchased an amazing array of Apple Trees and organized the planting. Some fantastic volunteers nurtured the little trees as they waited for the city to prepare the area. We hope that 2021 brings us lots of volunteers to keep our little trees healthy and safe during the coming season. When the trees finally fruit we will be all enjoying the fruits of our labour... terribly punny right? New Roof Some fearless
