No Room for Community in Toronto's new Community Garden Program (Part Two)

The Park's department is going ahead with building their "dictatorship garden" based on our five years of volunteer work.

We can't really call it a community garden since they will not collaborate with us.

Sarah Doucette​ is fully supportive of this endeavor and has been recruiting garden members for the project.  She mentioned she has about five currently.

We really wish that Sarah would have supported the community who worked so hard and helped us create the garden that the community envisioned.

Instead, it seems the idea of ANY garden is all that matters.  Even if it is built on bad blood.

Maybe she's right.

Find out more information on June 15th at the Annette Recreation Centre where Sarah will deliver the news to the community and hopefully answer all of your questions.  For exact time and date, please contact Sarah or look for posters at the site.

For a sneak peak of the development coming your way, here are some photos from another garden the city has constructed:
