Join the community at the first annual Garden of Lights and do your part to create food sustainability in the valley.

Enhance your holiday season with 10,000 twinkling lights that will extend from the David Thompson parking lot down the hill and throughout the greenhouse and gardens.

Forty sponsors will be decorating trees for your enjoyment and you will vote on your favorite – be it fabulous, funniest, or most festive. Local musicians will share their talents and put a holiday song in your heart – see program

Your ticket brings you into the light and music show where you can to purchase a variety of treats ranging from Taynton Bay’s Hot Toddies, to Smokehouse 93’s melt in your mouth pulled pork sliders, to a Buena Vieda spicy wrap, or one of Sweet Mountain Ice’s decadent coffees and crunchy caramel corn. Or you can support the JA Lairds students gardening program with a Whoville hot chocolate.

Visit with neighbours, warm your heart and your fanny at the fire, all while snacking on the delicious offerings.
