Was here for the fall fair. Very enjoyable. Great entertainment and vendors.
I especially like the labyrinth. Community gardens and great place to volunteer.
A model of cooperation and food sustainability. Allotment gardens, soup kitchen garden, seniors' garden, orchard, a labyrinth, and host to soup kitchen and food bank as well as lots of seasonal events make it a very special community gathering place.
This exceptionally beautiful property was a gift to the community, and it's become a real hub for culture and events. The buildings are old but maintained well, and the gardens are lovely. Meeting spaces both indoors and out. Run by volunteers in alignment with the values of the community of Gabriola. A lovely area for a walk, to admire the community gardens, the timberframe gazebo, the cob wall, and the yurt in the forest. Weekly summer farmer's market on Wednesday afternoons. (Watch for signs on the roadside.) Directly across from the elementary school, it also provides support for many school programs related to natural sciences and community wellness. A treasure we are happy to share with visitors!
