Gardening for sustainability at MERA

May 15, 2025

Gardening for sustainability.
Spring is returning and whether you have a green thumb or not, there’s so much to learn about nature through gardening. Having a self-sufficient garden probably means something a little different to everyone. Developing skills and implementing systems for self sustainability can help your garden thrive and depend less on external sources. On Saturday May 24th, join us at the MERA Schoolhouse (974 Dalhousie Concession 9A, McDonald’s Corners) for the Annual Garden Day from 10 am to 2 pm.
Bring your seedlings and plants to sell starting at 10 am. You can either set up a table for sale (donating some of your proceeds to MERA), swap, or donate your seedlings to the MERA table. If you would like a table please email Tim Booth This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
There will be presentations and demonstrations throughout the day from local experts Melissa Cornacchia, Ankaret Dean, Bill Barrett and Jennifer Ferris. The MERA Café will provide coffee, tea and snacks. Starting at noon, enjoy a lunch with beverage and dessert.
