It has been an amazing year! Look at what has happened on this beautiful green campus:
● The soil got richer as our volunteer-run Kemptville Campus Community Garden project attracted kid gardeners, adult gardeners, and butterflies;
● We continued to explore local food possibilities, ideas for a commercial kitchen, and partnerships in the greenhouse;
● Our partnerships with the local schools remained strong, with an Agrifood Entrepreneurship course offered with ACND and expanded apprenticeship training delivered with TR Leger School;
● Wellington Kids expanded and the North Grenville Learning Centre confirmed they'll be back to Leahurst Hall in September;
● The spectacular 2023 Kemptville Live Music Festival rocked our world;
● Sports groups such as Kemptville Minor Football (the Jags) and Mission Volleyball moved to their new home field and court;
● Artists such as The Dreaming Heart Art and Painted Key Therapy established their creative roots on campus.
We continue to grow as our wider Kemptville community grows. This beautiful green space is here for your enjoyment; come and participate in the activities, watch some football games, or just go for a walk. It’s all great for your health!
