Attention teachers! πŸŽπŸ“š

September 30 is the deadline to register for the 2027 Spuds in Tubs program!

Last year, over 4600 students across the province learned all about growing and harvesting potatoes, connecting them to agriculture and the Alberta potato industry. Spots still available in Lethbridge, Taber and Medicine Hat. Register here: https://www.agricultureforlife.ca/spudsintubs

If you're participating, you'll pick up your kit right here at Windmill Garden Centre in February! Each kit includes soil, tubs, seed potatoes, fertilizer, and all the information you need to get growing. πŸ₯”

We decided to shake things up a little for fall this season! Instead of going all out on mums, we brought in a beautiful mix of late-blooming annuals and hardy perennials that will keep your porch or yard full of colour through the season.

Rudbeckia, Echinacea, Anemone, Daisies, Gaillardia and Heuchera. So much colour. The bees are loving them and so are we.

If youre looking for something a little different and colour that will last, come wander and see what's new! πŸ‚

Our bulb selection is finally all here! πŸͺ»

If you've been waiting for the full lineup, now's the time to come have a look. We've got colour-changing tulips, scented tulips, saffron crocus (yes, you can grow your own saffron!), fragrant hyacinths, big beautiful daffodils, alliums in all kinds of sizes, and lots of garlic ready for fall planting.

It's one of those things that's easy to put off, but you'll be so glad you planted them when they're the first thing popping up next spring. 🌷

Wondering what to do with your garden this fall? Should you leave everything until spring, cut it all back, or somewhere in between?

Join us on September 19th as we discuss the pros and cons of different fall garden clean-up methods. We'll also cover the best fall soil amendments to improve soil health, planting fall bulbs, which seeds can be direct-sown now, and how shorter days and cooler temperatures affect tropical plant growth.

Whether you're new to gardening or have years of experience, you'll leave with practical tips to help your garden thrive.
