Parks and Pavilions

In 2018 Parks and Recreation planned and developed the planting of low maintenance, Bee and Butterfly pods.  This project will commence in several phases each year. Areas that have been identified as key locations included, behind the recycling station, Bend Park, the Nature Park and north east of the soccer fields.  The goal is to provide a natural habitat for the declining pollenating population. 
The various phases will be implemented as funds allow. 

Phase 1 (2018) was funded with the assistance of:

Community Foundation Grey Bruce
Walkerton and District Rotary Club
Walkerton Horticulture Society
Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority

Phase 2 (2019)

This years focus will be on educating the community

The garden is located on vacant municipal land north of the Walkerton Fire Hall, and can be accessed from the east end of Jane Street behind the Fire Hall. 

Some gardeners return year to year, but there are always some plots that come available each spring.
