Three members completed their education and receivedthe MG certificates, namely Janice Ekeland, Diane Rogers and Michelle Wilson.Our planned June excursion was to The Wychwood Barns, The Stop in Toronto and this provided anexcellent overview of the role they play in community programs including gardening, health, feedingand food bank and community activism/empowerment.In addition, MMG was invited to tour the restored heritage gardens at Black Creek Pioneer Village andwe spent a most enjoyable time on a cool day admiring the gardens and the extensive effort undertakento restore and maintain them.Two members resigned in 2012, due to other commitments. One new member joined in 2012, with onemore ready to join us in the New Year (2013).45
