🌱💚 Something special is growing at the Canmore Public Library!

We're excited to share that our Seed Exchange program has been featured on West Coast Seeds' Community Roots page! 💚

What started as a pilot project in 2024 has grown into a beloved part of summer here at the Library, bringing our community together through shared seeds, sustainability, and the love of gardening. 🌻🥕🌽

A big thank you to West Coast Seeds for shining the spotlight on this community-driven program, and for helping us get started each season! 🫶

Notes:

* Your family is not required to have any previous connection with BVCC. New families are welcome!
* We recognize that not everyone identifies with the term developmental disability. BVCC respects everyone's right to choose language that feels right for them/their loved one.
* If required due to weather, we will move inside to the Rec Centre.
* Each child can bring 1 friend with them - friend is not required to have a disability.
