Join your Glen Allan neighbours for a Spring Refresh!
Participate in the annual Pitch In on May 3 by using this link below to choose one of our neighbourhood green spaces—Granville, Greengrove, Garland, Gilmore Park, or another greenspace of your choice. Residents will gather at each location to help clean up litter and remove graffiti, giving our shared spaces a fresh start for the season. Time of day is flexible and it is approximately a 1 hour time commitment.
In addition to the clean-up, we invite you to stop by Gilmore Park between 11:00 and 12:00 to enjoy a refreshment and take part in the neighbour-to-neighbour perennial exchange.
Plant exchange details:
Instead of bringing plants to a central location, this exchange works by connecting neighbours with one another. If you’re looking to add something new to your garden, come by and see what others have to share. If you have perennials to offer, simply bring a photo or a list of what you would like to divide and give away.
Participants can “match” with neighbours and arrange to dig up and exchange plants later at a time that works for both. It’s an easy way to share, discover new plants, and connect with fellow gardeners in the community!
