This Event is a Fundraiser
All proceeds from ticket sales and direct donations raise funds for the Shelbourne Community Kitchen, a neighbourhood food centre combating food insecurity in our community.
Share your Garden with our Community
If you think your garden should be on our tour we want to hear from you! We're always looking passionate neighbours with a green thumb who are growing food, herbs, medicine, raising chickens or keeping bees! By participating in this event you are helping to raise funds for food insecure people in our community.
Gardens for the 2026 tour have been confirmed
Volunteer on the Day of the Tour
This incredible tour wouldn’t be possible without our amazing day-of volunteers. These dedicated community members welcome guests, check tickets, and support our garden hosts throughout the event.
Volunteer shifts are just half a day, and volunteers enjoy free access to explore the tour gardens for the remainder of the day!
Sponsor A ticket
Like food security, we're passionate about access. Sponsoring a ticket for students or individuals on fixed or low income allows all to share in the community and knowledge built by the tour.
And doing so is tax deductible!
Follow the link below and make a donation of $30 (or a multiple of $30 to sponsor more than one ticket). Send us an email with the confirmation of the donation and we'll add your sponsored ticket to the pool to be distributed to those in need.
DOnate Funds
Feel like you have a little extra to give? Help us reach our goal of raising $20 000 by donating funds out-right. The advantage of a fundraising event like ours is the exposure that we can bring to our amazing beneficiary. The more we can raise this year, the more momentum we have for next year! More momentum means more lives changed!
Donate To our Auction
We love to help gardeners get the materials and tools they need to grow all year round. You could join many other amazing suppliers in this city and donate something to the auction. Mulch, compost, gravel - you name it! From little things big things grow!
Donate Baked GOods for sale the day of the Tour
Nothing works up an apatite like garden touring! Select gardens will also host refreshments available for purchase. We're always looking for home chefs who would like to contribute to the Tour in their own small way!
