Ottawa chapter supports Ronald McDonald

The Ottawa Chapter of Landscape Ontario has long since supported Ronald McDonald House, and for 20 years has created a beautifully landscaped area for the “home away from home” for many families with loved ones in hospital for extended stays. With the landscape in need of repair, and to celebrate its 20-year affiliation with the organization, the Ottawa Chapter now looks to coordinate a garden renovation.

Some of the duties include: corrective pruning, replacement or repair of pebble cribs, soil amendment and mulching of the planting beds, lawn aeration and dethatching, irrigation and lighting system inspection, patio renovations, walkway inspections and the addition of some flowering shrubs and perennials.

Donations of material, labour and equipment are much appreciated to accomplish the work. For information on how to get involved, contact Tim Kearney at tim.Kearney@rogers.com or 613-822-0716. Faxed information can be sent to 613-839-7470.
