Riverdale Farm 2010 Calendar Is Back By Popular Demand!
Produced by the Riverdale Farm Advisory Council, the Riverdale Farm 2010 Calendar features fabulous photographs of the Farm’s buildings, gardens and animals throughout the year and includes not-to-be-missed dates of events in the community.
The Council is very grateful to all the local merchants who kindly sponsored the calendar and to all the visitors to the Farm who allowed us to use their photos. Joel Rotstein and Associates Inc. volunteered their great design and layout services and added some extra colour and whimsy this year.
Calendars are NOW on sale for only $10 at the Riverdale Farm Shop and the Meeting House, the Riverdale Farm Farmers’ Market every Tuesday from 3 – 7 p.m. until October and also at the Cabbagetown BIA Office, 237 Carlton Street. Look for the calendar on sale at various locations during the Cabbagetown Festival on September 12 and 13. This is a great gift or souvenir for your friends, family, neighbours, guests and hosts. All proceeds from this fundraising activity will be used to enhance the Farm.

Thanks for your help over the past few weeks. Parliament Street is looking good and it is a great feeling to be out there with your neighbors on Community projects. This weekend Kathy Goulding will be meeting you at the JetFuel Cafe’ on Sunday at 10 AM. I am travelling to Vancouver to meet my recently born great-nephew but will be back for the following weekend.
I have been asked if we were Scab: My thought is that when citizens take responsibility for the streets that they walk on everyday, how can that make us scabs? If we were 3rd parties getting paid by the City that would make us Scab…however these are our streets and we walk on them everyday. Read the rest of this entry »
