The Gardens at HCP offer a diverse range of community education workshops and classes including gardening and horticulture related topics for the home gardener and hobbyist. We also offer classes in garden arts such as basketry, watercolours, wreath making and more. Classes are delivered in-person or online or a blend of both. Many participants return again and again to learn and be part of the warm HCP community of gardeners and artists.
Many classes are discounted for HCP Members. For more information on becoming a member please click here. The best way to get regular updates on upcoming workshops is to sign up for our monthly enews. If you don’t already receive the enews, you can easily sign up by clicking here.
