The North Grove

Raise money for The North Grove

The North Grove’s Community Farm is a vibrant 20,000 sq. ft. gathering space in the heart of Dartmouth North. 

The Community Farm has something for everyone. By joining our Blue Nose team, you can help support vital summer programming like: 

  • Young Farmers  
  • Sunshine Gang Day Camp 
  • Family Playgroup and Baby & Me Playgroup 
  • Community Garden Plots 
  • Harvesting and preserving workshops using produce grown on our Community Farm 
  • Intergenerational arts and crafts programs and more! 

“We just love being there, we love the space. We can usually be found outside every day, checking on our garden plots, playing in the secret garden. We sometimes hang out there to play cards and play music. It feels like its own little community.” -Kirsten, David, & Jake 

By joining our Blue Nose team, you can help support all these programs and make our outdoor spaces accessible to even more people. This year we’d like to make the Community Farm more accessible by: 

  • Levelling the courtyard ground so mobilities devices can be used. 
  • Creating wider paths and routes for ease of navigation. 
  • Installing overhead solar lighting to provide community members with safe navigation of the space in the evenings. 
  • Making raised u-pick garden beds at accessible heights to provide everyone with easy access to grow, tend and harvest fresh vegetables. 
  • Adding more seating space for community members to find easy resting places and gather safely. 

Help The North Grove’s team meet our goal and raise $10,000 to support vital summer programs. We will be participating in the Lifemark 5KM on Saturday, May 21st at 8am.

Every team member gets a North Grove T-shirt and has a chance to win one of three awesome prize packs.
