Giving Back to the Community

We spent the morning helping out at the Cancord site of Hamilton Victory Gardens. We helped pick fresh vegetables: green beans, peas and onions, planted beans, watered the vegetable beds and  lay new mulch.

The Victory Gardens is a faith based, volunteer, not-for-profit corporation. The purpose is to develop and grow sustainable gardens, based on Urban Agriculture techniques, throughout the City of Hamilton. The objective is to provide local, organic, fresh produce to Hamilton’s marginalized population through local food banks and hot meal programs. Hamilton Victory Gardens is affiliated with Good Shepherd.
