Sherwood Community Garden

There is interest in redeveloping a portion of the Sherwood Community Park (15430 - 93 Avenue) into a garden area. A committee of volunteers is required to work in partnership with the City of Edmonton to establish, develop, govern, and manage a garden once it is built. Attend a brief 1 to 2 hour meeting each month. Sherwood and West Jasper Place resident volunteers can take on as little or as much work as they are able to.
