www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver, Friday May 18, 2007 - 35 GardenSmart takes root at Oakville Waterfront Festival T he May long weekend may be for some the start of cottage season, but it is also for many the sign that it is now safe to put those plants in the garden. Before you pick up that shovel, consider this: While native species plants require some maintenance, they require much less care than gardens with imported or exotic species. Native plants are easy to grow, are pretty much self sustaining, are adapted to the soil and climate conditions we live in, and are more pest resistant thus requiring much less fertilizers that put chemicals into our watershed. There are many ways you can make a difference to our environment by the way you garden The Oakville Waterfront Festival is offering the opportunity to learn how at a unique gardening show at this year's event, taking place June 2 -24. Presented by the Ontario Trillium Foundation, GardenSmart takes a look at the small steps each of us can take to ensure our gardens and gardening habits benefit the environment. With a focus on the planting of native species flowers, shrubs and trees; water conservation in the garden; and use of alterna- tive ground covers, GardenSmart will show you how to create ecologically sustainable landscapes and a low maintenance paradise in your own backyard. Expert horticulturalists, landscape designers, and gardening columnists will be on hand to provide answers, solutions, and suggestions to allow you to create a stunningly beautiful garden that provides year-round interest and attracts a rich variety of wildlife. GardenSmart presentations take place in Coronation Park throughout festival weekend and are included in your festival admission. Be sure to drop by for your chance to win a rain barrel courtesy of Home Depot, and visit the Home Depot booth for window box and container demonstrations. As well, local Home Depot stores will be providing free Smart Gardening seminars on June 9 and 16.
