Wildsight Kimberley Cranbrook is pleased to host our 6th Annual Harvest Party at the Kimberley Community Garden (aka Open Gate Garden) on Rotary Drive. Sunday September 22, starting at 1pm.
As in previous years, we are organizing a variety of activities for the event including our famed zucchini races, a community harvest potluck and the Spud Bucket Showdown weigh in.
Here are some details you may want to know:
- This is a FREE family friendly event where everyone is welcome.
- When it comes to zucchini racing – participants are encouraged to bring the best competition your family garden has to offer.
- Enjoy the garden’s harvest in the form of many delectable foods, and we invite you to bring your own potluck item to share.

- Bring your spud buckets and the Kimberley Helping Hands Food bank will be weighing them to find a winner!
