ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF MEMBERS

Grow A Row

The ECCA is getting organized to participate in “Grow A Row”, a Calgary Food bank initiative that allows Calgarians to help donate fresh food to those in need. As part of the next phase of development of the Evanston Community Park (115 Evanston Drive), we plan to build up to eight food garden boxes that will be partly dedicated to donating to the Calgary Food Bank. Details for the program are found at https://www.calgaryfoodbank.com/growarow/

If you are interested in becoming part of the Evanston Community Garden “Grow A Row" pilot project, please let us know by contacting [email protected]. We are looking for volunteers who are enthusiastic about coming together as a community to give back. Any help is welcome, whether you are an avid gardener or simply happy to be part of something that allows you to meet your neighbours.

Volunteer with the ECCA

We are always looking for people to join our team as the success of our events and our ability to deliver on community projects and initiatives are dependent on our volunteers. There are a variety of opportunities to get involved. Please email [email protected] if you are interested and or would like more information about joining the Board. If you are looking to volunteer your time, but perhaps not as director, we have a volunteer list you could be added to at [email protected].
