Bring all small planters inside if able. Cover tender annuals or brign tomato pots in. Just drove down deerfoot south and it was a complete dust storm.

A day full of plants, people, and community 🌿

We had such a fun time today in Dover helping with a community planter basket program! Seeing everyone get creative and leave with something they planted themselves was amazing.

Huge thank you to Stacy for helping bring it all together. We love being part of community spaces that connect people through gardening.

We love doing community workshops and planter events across Calgary 🌿

What a wonderful day in Dover!

Today we had the chance to help with a community planter basket program, and it was such a joy seeing everyone creating, planting, and connecting together.

A special thank you to Stacy for organizing and making the day happen. Community events like this are such a great reminder of how gardening brings people together.

We’re always grateful to be part of our Calgary communities and help people grow a little more green in their lives. 🌿

Hosting a community, corporate, or residential event this year? We’d love to bring a little gardening magic to it 🌿

POV: You’re working in a Calgary garden and find the cutest little primrose just casually thriving in the mulch. 💗🌸

This is Cortusa Primrose (Primula cortusoides) and honestly… she’s living her best pink life.

I love finding these little surprises tucked into older gardens. Tiny flowers like this may not scream for attention, but they absolutely steal the show when you notice them.

Would you plant primroses in your garden? 👀

Just a tiny Cortusa Primrose (Primula cortusoides) living its absolute best pink life in a client’s garden. 💗🌸

These woodland-style primroses are seriously underrated. Soft pink blooms, cute rounded leaves, and major fairytale garden energy.

🌿 Looking forward to leading this wonderful Community Herb Garden Workshop at the Dover Community Association! 🌿

I’ll be helping guide participants through creating their own potted herb gardens while sharing some beginner-friendly gardening tips along the way.

Community workshops like this are such a great way to connect, learn something new, and help people feel more confident growing plants at home.
Shout out to Stacey Alston in organizing this opportunity for the community. And the Calgary neighbourhood Grants program.

This workshop is pre-registered through the organizer.
