We’re excited to share that our community gardens are officially open! It’s a great time to plant cool-weather crops like kale, chard, onions, arugula and radish. If you have a garden space, we recommend getting your hot-crops in the ground after the May long weekend.

🌱 Happy Compost Week! 🍏 Did you know that composting isn’t just great for your garden, but it’s also amazing for the environment? 🌎 A lot of people think only food scraps belong in the compost, but the truth is—anything that came from a living thing, or once was, can go in!

We’re honoured to be nominated for Mississauga Board of Trade's Not-For-Profit of the Year Award! This Thursday, May 8, we’ll join fellow organizations and businesses at the Business Awards of Excellence to celebrate the incredible contributions that make Mississauga such a vibrant community.

🌱 Happy Compost Week! ♻️ Composting can sometimes bring unwanted smells, but don’t let that stop you. With a few simple tips, you can keep your bin fresh and avoid sending compostable materials to the landfill. Every bit counts and composting truly makes a difference.

🌱 Happy Compost Week! 🍏 Not everything belongs in the compost—but a lot can go in! We want to stay mindful of what we’re adding to the compost—focusing on food scraps and do our best to limit overall food waste.

Thank you!

It's time! After the long weekend, the risk of frost is generally over & you can plant your hot crops - tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, okra, squash. Just keep an eye on nighttime temperatures to see if the plants need to be covered!
