Legion Garden Spring Cleanup May 2026
For the last couple of years, we have volunteered to cleanup the front garden at the Stittsville Legion.
It's a challenge: sloped garden on Stittsville Main St, exposed to full sun, pollution and only rain for watering.
It is becoming a mostly native plants location as they are tough enough for this environment.
Hope you enjoy the flowers on a walk down Stittsville Main Street!
Each spring, we volunteer as a group to pickup litter on/beside the Trans-Canada Trail, usually between Sacred Heart High School through Village Square Park, then west of Stittsville Main Street.
It's a great way to make a difference to the wider Stittsville community. Stittsville frequently ranks #1 across Ottawa for the volume of cleanup projects and engaged volunteers.
Student volunteers welcome! Great way to earn some of those volunteer hours during high school.
