The Creemore Echo • Friday, July 7, 2017 • 3 Hort Society puts new slant on gardening by Trina Berlo There is a lot to learn from Creemore’s Hort Park. The garden, located off Mill Street between the bank and the grocery store, is a favourite place for people to stroll, lounge, play and maybe even be inspired. The garden is full of gorgeous plants tended by Creemore Horticultural Society volunteers, and if that’s not enough inspiration, they have added a number of new features to increase awareness about pollinators, native plants and creating gardens in some unusual places. Since last fall, a bee house, pollinator garden, green roof, vertical garden and a new Canada 150 garden have been added. Master gardener Charlotte Vorstermans said she got the idea to make the roof of the shed into a green roof in the fall when she was flipping through some gardening magazines. She enlisted the help of husband Paul and a frame was created using recycled materials. They planted it with sedum, Staff photo: Trina Berlo which has shallow roots, is drought hardy, pest resistant and the bees love Creemore Horticultural Society members Peter Long (from left), Charlotte Vorstermans, Cheryl Miller, Sharon it. Vorstermans wanted to show that a Long and Paul Vorstermans have installed a green roof at the Hort Park as part of a larger education initiative green roof could be created, even on a about attracting pollinators. slanted roof and that they are great for insects and all of the pollinators. growing mandate of education. garden, said Vorstermans. a patio or a balcony.

A clear communication plan can go a long way to helping people understand why decisions are being made and help mitigate hard feelings. The strategy should consider a number of scenarios and always aim to get the message, no matter how unpopular, to the people most affected because people take upsetting news better when they feel they have received honest information and when they still have time to comment and provide meaningful input. There have been a number of issues lately that have left people feeling shocked and betrayed by their local government. For example, in the last round of committee restructuring, at least two boards were taken by surprise when it was recommended they be dissolved (not counting the committees that were dissolved in John Trew (left) and Alexander Matchett, owned hotels in Creemore. earlier rounds). When council agreed to let ATVs have access to certain township roads six months after they were denied, it was voted down that residents on the new routes be alerted to the change.

Robert and Edna with their daughters moved to Orillia about 1931. With brother Jerry, Robert opened another jewellery store in that town. From Alexander’s obituary comes this tribute: “Mr. Matchett was the soul of honour, and while he did not pose as a church man his deeds were Christ like. He fed the hungry, clothed the naked, befriended the friendless. No humble citizen in want appealed to his generous heart in vain, and many a financial loss did he sustain by his generous impulses. In him the needy have lost a friend indeed.” At the unveiling of the Matchett plaque it was an honour to have with us four great grandchildren, Wendy Whitemore of Port Sydney, Roberta Fred Mills photo Sheehan of Wetaskiwin, Alberta, Four great grandchildren of Alexander Matchett attended the Purple Hills Arts and Heritage Societyʼs Matchett Scott Mackenzie and Victoria Ridley House historical plaque unveiling Saturday.

Creemore celebrated Canada Day with extra enthusiasm for the sesquicentennial with parades – the annual Harold Crawford Memorial Kids Bike Parade organized by Corey Finkelstein and a transportation and dress from Canada's 150 years organized by Pauline McIntosh and Ken Day. The Legion hosted an afternoon of games and everyone was well fed by the Ladies Auxiliary and the firefighters.
