Hello Garry oak growers,

This is a gentle reminder of the upcoming Garry Oak Nursery work party on Sunday, April 28th from 10am to 1pm. We've just begun the push to get all the acorns planted: we have 375 in the soil so far! Come join in the particularly pleasant task of planting these acorns and soon we'll be able to see their cute little leaves sprouting out of the soil!

As a reminder, there is a proper toilet (porta-potty type) on the premises.  Gloves, tools & refreshments are provided. Weather appropriate clothing & good work boots are recommended!

Hello Garry oak growers,

This is a gentle reminder of the work party tomorrow on Sunday, April 14th from 10am to 1pm. Judith will be hosting this volunteer event.

We're almost finished potting up the last of the 4" seedlings from their styroblocks to 1-gallon pots so most of the work party will be focused on planting acorns.
