Planting day was a success! Thanks to everyone who volunteered their time on such a nice day!
Growing Healthy Food, People & Communities! The North Central Community Gardens, a joint project between the North Central Community Association and Grow Regina are gearing up to garden!
The North Central Community Gardens are planted, maintained, and enjoyed by volunteers and residents of North Central Regina! The gardens are shared by all.
Community Gardens offer increased food security, and community involvement by turning vacant lots into green havens of delicious, nutritious vegetables that everyone can enjoy! They also beautify the community by cleaning up otherwise vacant lots.
We welcome everyone and anyone, from any neighbourhood in Regina, to volunteer in any capacity; organizing, gardening, fundraising, or anything else you would like to help with. The gardens belong to the entire community, so please join us! Contact the office to find out how!
There are many things that happened this summer in relation to the gardens.
On July 14, 2010 Brett Dolter and Glenn Sutter released a CD titled “Seeds” at The Exchange and all the proceeds from this CD went to the gardens. Thank you to everyone who came out to support Brett and Glenn and the gardens. The North Central Community Association will be selling this CD for $15. Just come by the office at 1264 Athol Street!
Volunteer Times!
In the summer months, every Tuesday at 10 am and Thursday from 6-8 pm everyone is welcome to come down and enjoy all that the gardens have to offer. Each volunteer will get entered into a draw for a prize that will be given away at the end of the season!
All Volunteer drop-in times and family/children activities are weather permitting. Each time we will meet at the Robinson St. garden (1337 Robinson St.). Hope to see everyone out!
In 2009, the North Central Community Gardens in partnership with Common Weal Community Arts, hosted an art project and community BBQ. People from the community came to the Robinson Street plot to make stepping stones and tiles.
Volunteers are always welcome in the gardens. To find out about volunteer opportunities, please contact the office at 791-9888 or email: projects@nccaregina.ca
We are also looking for donations. If you are interested in donating to the gardens, please contact us.
