Who are our sponsors?
Our Sponsors, current and past, are local businesses who have helped us grow through donations of cash and/or good and services. We are grateful, for without them, we would not be where we are today.
Current
The City of Colwood has been with us since day one when the Society was created in 2014. We continue to operate with their full support , under a yearly lease agreement. They graciously donated the land at Colwood City Hall upon which the Colwood Community Gardens grow. They continue to encourage and mentor us, for which we are grateful.

Island Junk Removal Solutions sponsorship details: Wes Roberts, owner, and his team have generously offered to pick up, at no cost to the society, garden waste, unused pots, and wooden items at the end of the growing season. These items will be composted and returned to the soil system and/or recycled. Furthermore, they will also haul soil or gravel for us, twice per year at the beginning of the growing season. Up to now, we have been hauling soil in plastic tubs or the back of a pickup truck when available. Read blog post.
