Planting Day!







Huge thanks to Dave Toderick, Bruce & Susan Crofts, Tanis, Katie, Jenny & Eileen and Tim Horton's for donating the coffee, and to Jacqueline Keddy our water girl!

A special behind-the-scenes hug & thank-you to Josie @ High Park for so many excellent prairie plants!

To City Parks & Rec's Brian Green, Phil, Joanna Keddy:

...we're not just grateful, we're impressed! Thank you for your know-how, for getting your hands dirty with us today, for hooking us up with the soil, mulch, straw bales, plants and delivering them too, but also thank you (and also Martin MacPfeiff) for all the time and care you've already given us and our park!

The garden now has a solid line-up of native prairie plants, mostly from High Park: we couldn't ask for better provenance!

Grasses:

Shrubs:
Trees:
... and (if we can find room!) there are still several more species of seeds to sow.
