Absolutely nothing! The Garden Workshop Series is generously funded by a number of partners and supporters, which enables us to offer them free of cost to community members.

All materials and/or tools needed to participate are supplied. Light snacks and refreshments are also supplied.

If you are a youth and transportation costs are a barrier to participation, please reach out; we can help!

The workshops will take place at various garden and community sites across Kitchener and Waterloo. All sites will be accessible by bus for those who use public transit and will have parking available for those who travel by car. 

Most/all workshop locations will have a washroom; we will make clear to registrants if this is not the case. 

Most/all workshops will take place outside; as such, we recommend wearing weather appropriate clothing and bringing a hat and sunscreen. Water will always be available on site. 

Exact locations will be announced shortly!

A better question is what do you want to learn? Each workshop covers a different topic and will be facilitated based on its location, food leader facilitator, and participants.

When you sign up for a workshop you’ll get a chance to let the facilitator(s) know what you’re most excited for/want to learn.

During the workshop there will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions and each is designed so that you can use what you learned in your own garden at home, school, etc.!

You sure can! We do ask that each person attending a workshop register at least 24 hours beforehand so we can ensure there are enough materials and refreshments for all.

You sure can! Students looking for community service hours can bring their school’s volunteer tracking sheet with them to the workshop, or we can e-sign or send a volunteer letter in the days following the workshop upon request.
