GARDENSCAPE 2015
This year the Saskatoon School of Horticulture and the Prairie Master
Gardeners are approaching Gardenscape from a new perspective. Over the
past 26 years this trade show has grown and evolved. Our goal for
Gardenscape 2015 is to contribute to refocusing the show on gardening and
horticulture education.
At SSH we are always trying to find ways to enhance our curriculum and
make the education side of things even better. Our role at Gardenscape is to
educate the public and to ensure our students gain experience by helping to
share their love of horticulture, gardening and a healthy approach to life.
Two of our second year students took on the challenge to make The
Enchanted Forest a major project for their second year Project Management
class. Stephanie Nielsen and Maedeh Tizhoosh have been pretty busy with
growing plants and ensuring we have lots of great things to share
and sell to all those attending the show.
After much deliberation and brainstorming, we have embarked on a massive
production. The Enchanted Forest will be 800 square feet of horticulture
and gardening which will educate the public with a hefty side of
enchantment.
The Enchanted Forest experience will also be interactive. There will be a
planted piano that is played at intervals throughout the show, and a meadow
built into the garden where events like yoga, drumming, and other
participatory activities will occur. There will also be a children's area with
face painting and child-oriented fun. Visiting SSH during Gardenscape will be
an experience to remember!
Please see the schedule of events below as well as a thank you to our
sponsors!
