Inspiring Home Gardeners
Due to the new Covid-19 Restrictions for Ontario, we have unfortunately had to cancel our plant swap
Stokes Seed Company generously donated to Canada Blooms. We'd like to take an opportunity to both thank them for their kindness, and also distribute their virtual catalogues to help gardeners & garden suppliers find the information they may have missed out on due to the Covid-19 related suspension.
All home show and Canada Blooms events are shut down. All Master Gardener advice clinics, workshops and presentations have been cancelled, due to concerns about COVID-19. Thank you to all our volunteers for their hard work.
Master Gardeners (MGs) in the Province of Ontario are experienced gardeners who have studied horticulture extensively and continue to upgrade their skills through technical training. With this training and continuing education, Master Gardeners are volunteers who provide expert horticultural advice to the general public.
Brantford Master Gardeners include Brantford, St. George, Paris, Glen Morris, Waterford, Hamilton, Burford, and Scotland.
The Master Gardener concept was originally created in Washington State (USA) in 1972. Ontario’s first pilot sites began in Brigden, Englehart and London with 39 participants. The next year, Brantford, Stratford, Ottawa, Windsor, Algoma West, Burlington and St. Catharines joined and brought with them another 154 new volunteers.
