🌱 Rooted Here: Growing in Calgary’s Climate (Gardening Series)
Join us at the Dalhousie Community Association for Rooted Here: Growing in Calgary’s Climate—a practical, down-to-earth gardening series with Janet Melrose, designed specifically for our unique growing conditions.
Whether you’re just getting started or looking to build on what you already know, this series will give you the tools, knowledge, and confidence to grow successfully right here in Calgary.
🌿 What to Expect
Each session is interactive, practical, and easy to follow, with real examples you can apply right away.
You’ll learn how to:
- Work with Calgary’s climate (not against it)
- Grow your own food—from spring planting to year-round options
- Choose and care for plants that actually thrive here
- Build skills over the season as your garden evolves
Dates:
- May 14 – Edible Gardening (Spring)
- June 11 – Edible Gardening (Summer)
- August 6 – Growing Fruit in Calgary
- September 10 – Indoor Edible Gardening
All sessions run 6:30 – 8:30 PM at the DCA.
Why Join the Full Series?
This isn’t just a one-off workshop—it's designed to build your knowledge over the entire growing season, so you can actually see results in your own garden.
Registration Options
- Full Series (best value)
- Individual sessions if you prefer to pick and choose

Spots are limited, and we need minimum registrations to run each session—so don’t wait too long to sign up.
