May 30-31: New Wall Build, Ravina Gardens Park, Toronto, ON.

Dry Stone Canada is very pleased to announce that we are having our first workshop in the City of Toronto. Ravina Gardens Park, in The Junction, has a community garden. The community has arranged to have a wall built to support the new pollinator garden they plan to install.

This wall will have a slight curve to it and will be built using quarried stone. This is an excellent opportunity to learn the basics of dry stone wall building along with incorporating stone into a garden design.

This workshop is suitable for beginners. No tools are required. Lunches and snacks will be provided.
