***Children's Garden Update***

Dear Friends & Family,

Unfortunately, Jenna's dream of the children's garden will be postponed til spring of 2013. It is sad to announce this cancellation at this time.
We have had the City of Markham involved in this project which delayed this project. The upside is that this garden is now part of a larger vision and it is the first garden dedicated to a person (Jenna) in the town of Markham, therefore the town has also donated a portion of their funds into this project. They are laying the groundwork and foundation to the garden which frees up the donations that we have received for the garden itself to be planted and bloom.

Since fall is approaching and the foundation will only be completed in September, there is no point planting in the fall. Therefore Spring is the new focus since we will be able to fulfill Jenna's dream in time for the next summer and maintain for years to come.

I will keep you updated to the official Launch Date to be late June 2013 to celebrate Jenna's dream fulfilled. This event will be memorable with fun activities and education to teach children and adults alike about gardening.
Stay tuned for further updates...
Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,


Mike Schryer

Children's Garden - In memory of Jenna

Come and celebrate the launch of the Children's Garden in memory of Jenna's honor and her dream fulfilled. 

Jenna has had the dream of having a Children's garden to educate children and adults about the fundamentals of plants and gardening to reconnect with our mother earth. 

Jenna has worked at the Markham museum to teach children and to share her knowledge to enrich her community of our native plants. Jenna's dedication has not been lost, but regained through her determination and influence over others who wish to continue her vision and dream to come to reality. With the help of her dedicated lover, the Markham Museum as well as her friends, we are pleased to announce that the Children's garden will be launching in celebration of a great accomplishment to serve children and adults alike for years to come.
All are welcome to celebrate this meaningful event that Jenna has given her dedication to manifest with thanks and gratitude.

Location: Markham Museum  9350 Markham Rd. (Former Hwy. 48), Markham, Ontario L3P 3J3

More details to follow as we progress toward the launch date...

Sincerely,


Mike Schryer
