Hinton's Community Gardens Win Funds



The ACE alumni community of Hinton has received some great news recently! Their Hinton Community Garden Society can look forward to a healthy injection of funds next year after the community organization was named the recipient of the 2013 Canadian Tire Mayor’s Charity Event.

Mayor Ian Duncan made the announcement last week after the Garden Society was selected from nine applicants to be the focus of Hinton’s annual fundraising weekend in August. After forming three years ago, the Hinton Community Garden Society has seen operations grow at a rapid pace to more than 90 registered members growing food in two large greenhouses.
