Gardening Workshop

Sue Leslie | Apr 06, 2017

Cam and Michelle Mather came to the new Parham Fire Hall, which includes the Parham branch of the Kingston Frontenac Public Library, on Saturday April 1st.

Cam gave an informative and entertaining hour long workshop on organic gardening and then continued with informative answers to all the questions from the filled up meeting room.  

Michelle sold their books and CDs at a bargain rate and they graciously did the workshop for free. Unbeknownst to them, we did collect some donations to give them, but Cam has done workshops for $70 per person at the botanical gardens, so we are very grateful to them for this workshop for our community. Afterwards, people were invited to the library to look at the collection of gardening books brought in to the library to borrow; as well as a collection of donated books that are available to keep for free. Keep a watch out for future workshops and plan to use your local libraries on an ongoing basis.

Like the knowledge provided by presenters such as Nancy Benn on diabetes and Cam Mather on gardening, libraries are a valuable local resource well worth keeping in our area.
