About the Program: 

Our Horticultural Program works towards community development using gardening. We partner with other organizations to engage diverse groups of participants who are responsible for the care and cultivation of five gardens around the city of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Participants learn how to grow their own edible gardens full of vegetables, herbs and flowers and also learn ways to use the items they have grown.
