Boots ‘n Blooms 2014
More than 100 faculty, staff and children from Dalhousie’s Agricultural Campus spent a beautiful Friday morning working in the Alumni Garden and Rock Garden as part of the third annual Boots ‘n’ Blooms event.
Boots ‘n’ Blooms is an annual tradition on the Agricultural Campus — a day of “sweat equity” where the Ag community’s “green thumb” volunteers come together to freshen up many of the gardens around campus – just in time for prom and wedding season.
The addition of a team prize this year brought out our gardener’s creative sides with names like “The Blooming Brooms” “Dye to work” and “Gold in the new Black”
Don’t miss your chance to participate next year!
