It’s the last week of May and there are tons of events happening in Verdun!<\/p>\n

Even if it’s raining, you can enjoy a wonderful spring day during the\u00a0Cultiver Verdun<\/a> event at the municipal greenhouses, 7000 boul. LaSalle tomorrow!\u00a0The event includes a public consultation about what you’d like to see in urban agriculture projects in Verdun. The rest of the Grand Potager members, all of whom specialize in urban agriculture, will have tables set up to tell you what’s happening this season. There’s also a mini farmers’ market and CAUS will be selling our premium compost, seedlings, hanging pots,\u00a0microgreen seeds, lawn seed, pruners, gloves etc. from our gardening shed in the back.\u00a0 We also have a couple of dozen eggs from Farmer Ed to sell. Urban Seedling’s garden centre will be open, as it is daily from 9 until 5, so you can pick up seedlings and some of their great gardening soil that contains compost and coconut fibre fully-integrated within.<\/p>\n

Everything takes place from 10 until 4. Hope to see you\u00a0there.<\/p>\n

Later in the week, on Thursday, the Reclaim lunch<\/a>\u00a0takes place inside followed by the\u00a0Anglo Family Council Health and Wellness Day<\/a>\u00a0outside at the Church of Epiphany on Wellington Street.<\/p>\n

Cultiver Verdun<\/a>\u00a0 continues again during the Promenade Wellington sidewalk sale<\/a> next Saturday as part of the wider Cultiver Montreal.<\/a><\/p>\n

Also this week in Verdun, chef Joey d\u2019Alleva, Sophie Bergeron, Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Leblond and Marc-Andr\u00e9 Paradis\u00a0announced\u00a0plans for a new pasta and pizza restaurant called Rita<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
