BRING BACK THE BEES!

Honey Nut Cheerios and Vesey Seeds are once again running their “Bring Back The Bees” promotion, in which they are giving away free wildflower seeds.

This is a way we can help Buzz and his friends—so important considering that  “one in three bites of food we eat is made possible by bees and other pollinators, who spread the pollen that crops need to grow.  That includes many of our favourite foods like apples, almonds, coffee, and of course, honey.”

The Yorkton and District Horticultural Society

Wishes you a very Merry Christmas

And every blessing in the new year!

Our first meeting of 2017 will be on Wednesday, February 15.

We hope you can join us!

New members are always welcome!

Our meetings cover a wide range of topics, with interesting speakers and presentations.

Our main goal is to encourage an interest in horticulture, whether you are a nice gardener or a seasoned green-thumb!

An interest in gardening gives fresh air, exercise, an opportunity for learning, a chance to meet other interested gardeners, a chance to beautify your little corner of the world, and a mind-set that looks forward to the “next season” with hope and enthusiasm!

Gardening is good for you!
