Resources for gardeners This is an eclectic list of plant suppliers, listed regionally which members may find useful when planning a plant search outing! The list is confined to areas which can be reached in a day's outing , therefore does not include suppliers in the far reaches of our province. The list focuses on family-owned businesses each of which was recommended. The list is in no way complete and if you have other recommendations, they could be added to the list. Every effort was made to contact the supplier directly to ensure correct information. In other cases individual websites or google searches were relied upon for information.

It is highly recommended you check those websites for updated information. Some businesses offer discounts to garden club members.

Seedy Saturday Speakers 2025 Seedy Saturday 2025 We had a very successful Seedy Saturday with over 500 people coming through the door, and about 50 volunteers for organizing, running the event and cleaning up afterwards. We couldn't do it without these willing hands! Thanks again to Niki Jabbour, Elizabeth Peirce, Chris Hall, Chris Radimer and Chris Sanford - our speakers. Our 14 vendors were all enthusiastic and it was great seeing everyone again this year. We had three info tables too, well-attended. With the seeds and plant material we all bought, we look forward to lots of wonderful planting and growing this spring, summer and fall. Thank you! And we wanted to share our list of sponsors again, along with advertisers and supporters! It was a fantastic day all 'round. How about a round of applause for Certainly Cinnamon?
