DESJARDINS HARVEST PROJECT
The Desjardins Harvest project involves offering planting and harvesting workshops to students at Jeanne-Le Ber primary school and volunteers from the Club populaire des consommateurs de Pointe-Saint-Charles, as well as the Collectif Fermette de Pointe-Saint-Charles. The workshops will run from May to October 2025. They will give young people and adults in the neighbourhood a chance to get to know the Museum’s gardens and the neighbourhood’s agricultural history, and to help combat food insecurity.
Maison Saint-Gabriel would like to thank the Caisse Desjardins du Sud-Ouest de Montréal for its support in making this project a reality.
