We Need You

Hello Friends of the Garden,

The Ravina Community Garden would like to extend an invitation for community members to step up and take on a variety of leadership roles within the garden.

We all know there is a lot of behind the scenes work needed to create a community garden from scratch, and that the work is indeed a labour of love!   We also know there is no garden without community involvement.

The garden is currently seeking community members who are willing to lead the following areas:
  • Governance and Gardening Agreement Manuals
  • Beauty and Design
  • Bed Installation and Work Days
  • Community Outreach
  • Construction
  • Fundraising
  • Maintenance
  • Shoppers


Please come to one of our bi monthly meetings and stay up to date via the blog or our facebook page.

The next meeting will take place on July 22nd @ 7pm and we will meet at the site on the corner of Clendenan and Glendonwynne.

If you cannot offer time to the garden, please consider a monetary donation.  The bulk cost of the garden is the planter beds, as the site requires that all edibles must be grown in containers due to pesticide use over time.

Accessible beds cost $2,000 each and the regular beds cost $1,000 each.  We also would like to build an outdoor oven and host weekly community meals at the garden.

Please help make this a wonderful community space, where plants and people grow!
