Growing More Than Vegetables: The Heart Behind the Victory Garden
Each year, dedicated volunteers generously donate their time, energy, and expertise to ensure the garden flourishes. From planning and planting to watering, weeding, harvesting, and maintaining the garden throughout the growing season, countless hours are invested by individuals who believe that no family in our community should go without access to fresh, healthy food.
Thank you Anna, from the Horticultural Society!
The Fenelon Falls Horticultural Society were very lucky this year to have Anna Telford as their Student Garden Assistant. Anna worked daily with other Horticultural members keeping things growing and blooming around town.

So, on that note, here is some history of the Victory Garden.
