Earth-Friendly Plant Sale | May 13, 10 am – 2 pm | Earthwise Garden, Boundary Bay
Does the warmer weather have you itching to get outside into your garden? If you’re in search of a little botanical inspiration, join us in the Earthwise Garden in Boundary Bay on May 13 from 10 am – 2 pm for an Earth-Friendly Plant Sale. Tour the garden for some colourful ideas, then peruse our selection of native, pollinator, waterwise plants, and more. We’ll also have a limited number of vegetable starts available. Remember, your garden is not just pleasing to the eye; it also provides many ecological services. Gardens offer nutrients and shelter to wildlife, improve air quality, and provide critical forage to beneficial pollinators. Purchasing some beautiful plants for your garden is a great way to give back to the Earth! While you are here, stop by our Farm Cart for our selection of early-season certified organic produce.
April 16-22 is volunteer week in Canada, a time to celebrate Canada’s millions of volunteers and thank them for the many ways in which they give back. Earthwise Society is fortunate to have a dedicated team of hardworking volunteers. Thank you for sharing your expertise, experience, and time with us, and for helping us make our community a more vibrant place. Springtime is also the perfect time to welcome new volunteers to our team! Anyone who is curious about getting involved at Earthwise is invited to join us in the Earthwise Garden in Delta on April 19 from 7-8 pm for a Volunteer Open House. You’ll get the chance to meet our friendly volunteers, learn about volunteer opportunities, and enjoy a tour of the beautiful garden. Then, we’ll enjoy some refreshments together!
