Join the Withrow Farmers' Market Committee


Want to help make Withrow the best little neighbourhood market it can be? We are looking for members to join our market committee! If you are interested please send a short bio to Roberta at withrowpfm@gmail.com by Friday April 27. Tell us about your various experiences, skills and hobbies, and what you hope to contribute to the market. You can help us plan special events and features, assist with promo and communications and more, and share your vision for the market and a healthy and sustainable local food system with like-minded folks. If you aren’t keen on sitting on a committee, but would still like to contribute your talents to the market, we’d still love to hear from you!!

A COLD BUT GREAT CLEAN UP AND COMPOST DAY

A great clean up and compost day at Withrow Park!
 Thank you to Councillor Fletcher for arranging for the compost at the park!

 People showed up throughout the day to pick up compost.
 And thank you to Sandra for organizing the clean up day.  She weathered a chilly day to organize all of the wonderful volunteers who showed up to clean up our park.
A shout out to the city staff who have kept our park clean.  The clean up volunteers commented that the park was in good shape from the start.  The major litter culprit...cigarette butts...thousands of them. 

And now...time to enjoy the park!

Park Clean Up and Compost Pick Up

Join us on Saturday April 21st from 10-2 as we clean up Withrow Park!  We will have gloves and garbage bags available for the clean up.  Just a few minutes can make a big difference if we all pitch in together!

While you are at the park you can pick up some compost for your garden.  Councillor Fletcher has arranged for compost to be delivered to the park for your use. Thank you Councillor Fletcher!

And this is also your chance to get rid of any unused iphones kicking around your home.  We will be collecting old iphones to donate to Hope Phones http://hopephones.org/
