A group of local volunteers will be hosting an Open House at the Kemptville Campus greenhouses Saturday, January 25, from 10am – 2pm. The Greenhouses are located at 75 Campus Drive, in the AJ Logsdail Centre. The public is welcome.

The group, led by Claude Smith, Horticulture Coordinator at the former Kemptville College, has submitted a proposal to the Kemptville Campus Board outlining the benefits of allowing community access to the Greenhouses. Currently there are three main greenhouses and an educational workspace ideal for gatherings, workshops and training programs.

The proposed project would transform the Greenhouse into a vibrant community space, offering a variety of horticultural and educational programming to the public. The buildings are fully accessible.

To learn more about possible future plans for the Greenhouses – or just to get a tour of the space – the public is invited to drop by Saturday, Jan. 25th from 10am – 2pm. For more information, contact Claude Smith: 613-715-0072.
