Plant Sale (CCC)
May 11 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
The Crichton Community Council in New Edinburgh invite you to the New Edinburgh Plant Sale on Saturday May 11th, 2023 from 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM at New Edinburgh Park at 203 Stanley Avenue, Ottawa.
For more than 20 years New Edinburgh residents have purchased their plants on the Fieldhouse’s front lawn the Saturday before Mother’s Day.
The Crichton Community Council will be selling unique hanging baskets and planters from Les Serres Oli-Ève. Proceeds support neighbourhood events and community initiatives, as well as for the purchase of equipment for public use.
Ferme Lève-Tot will be selling edible plants for your gardens and answering questions about Community Supported Agriculture.
Proponents of a proposed community garden in New Edinburgh Park will be on site to discuss this initiative with you and to receive your input.
The CCC will be recruiting kids to help remove undesirable plants from the park’s flower bed. A few holes need to be dug for new trees to be planted in the park. Bring your kids, some small shovels and gloves!
