Also, drop-in fitness sessions are being held at the Garden June 28, July 30 and August 23 (more information here) and Nordic walking sessions are returning to the Garden July 12, August 13 and September 13 (more information here).

The first garden market will be next week: Tuesday, June 28, 2016 From: 7:00pm to 8:30pm!

Regular market hours for the remainder of the summer will be: Tuesday evenings from 7:00pm to 8:30pm and Saturdays from 11:00am to 1:00pm.

For those of you who haven’t visited the Garden before, we are located on the South Campus of the University of Alberta. Enter the University Farm off 60th Ave. Turn left at the T intersection (118th St) and you can’t miss it – we’re just across the road from the old barn. A map and further directions to the garden are available at www.greengoldgarden.com/visit.

See you at the market!
