The City of Charlottetown currently has 21 large vegetable planters for the public to enjoy and share! Eleven are in Victoria Park and the rest are in Orlebar Park, Desbrisay Park, J. Frank MacAulay Park, and Joe Ghiz Park.
The City also planted edible orchards in Windsor Park, Desbrisay Park, and Orlebar Park through funding from Tree Canada’s Edible Tree program. Three additional veggie planters are planted for Windsor Park in 2020.
The fruits, veggies and nuts are available for the public to glean seasonally. In the document container below, check out some recipe ideas for using some of the items accessible in our planters, edible orchards and forging wall.
