Montreal Botanical Garden’s host the much loved Great Gardening Weekend

Posted on May 25, 2010

Get your hands dirty and celebrate all this fine, plant growin’ weather we’ve been having by paying a visit to the Montreal Botanical Garden’s 13th annual Great Gardening Weekend, on May 28th to 30th. There’s a wide-variety of attractions for green thumbs of all ages: Demonstration booths will offer valuable gardening tips, and a series of lectures will feature speakers from the gardening community. Look for me at the Food-Producing Horticulture Booth, where local wine, cider, apple, berry and vegetable producers will be offering tastes of their wares.

It’s also a great opportunity to stock up on new plants; new and rare varieties will be on offer from growers across Quebec, and the Garden itself will be selling new, rare and forgotten plants.

Admission: $14, students and seniors $10.50, children $7.00, free for children under 2.
May 28, 29 & 30 from 9am to 5pm.
Montreal Botanical Garden 4101 Sherbrooke East (Metro Pie-XI).
