Community gardens get a reprieve

× Thank you!

For more than a dozen years the Bay Observer has been providing a fresh perspective on the important local events and issues that face our communities.

Coverage of local news has never been more important in our democratic society as the number of news voices has diminished. You can help us not only maintain the quality coverage we have been providing, but to improve it, by allowing us to being more voices and more coverage to our loyal readers and followers.

At a time when many on-line news services are moving to paywalls the Bay Observer prefers to try a different approach that involves the Bay Observer family.

If you agree that local journalism is worth your support, will you consider making a donation of any size?

The province has relented on its closure of community gardens .Ontario has lifted the emergency ban to allow community gardens to open, subject to physical distancing guidelines. The legislation allows the gardens to open “ in compliance with the advice recommendations and instructions of public health officials.” The change comes in time for gardeners to get planting started.
