The Year of the Garden 2022, a Centennial Celebration of our horticulture sector, from January 1 to December 31, will commemorate Canada’s rich garden heritage, celebrate today’s vibrant garden culture, and create legacies for a sustainable future. The Year of the Garden 2022 will permit members of Canada’s Garden-Family to make the population aware of the products, services, and experiences available to them to enhance their passion, their love, their engagement and their contribution to Canada’s garden culture. To date, this initiative has received broad support from all branches of the Garden-Family and the corporate community. The Canadian Garden Council is working to facilitate the participation of all Garden-Family members and of every Canadian, no matter where you are. To do so, the Canadian Garden Council is inviting corporate Canada and various levels of government to join the growing momentum of this unique celebration, a world first.
