Each year we celebrate Earth Day by coming together for a community clean-up event. This year we've had to modify our plans due to the recent stay-at-home order. However, we would still like to have some fun with another socially distanced event that will also brighten up our neighbourhood!
Starting Monday, April 19th until Sunday, April 25th,
we want to see your creative driveway/sidewalk chalk art. Draw a picture or write a phrase related to Earth Day. Snap a photo, send it to us and it will be entered into a random draw to
WIN 1 of 10 gift cards ($20 value each)!
Your art may be featured in our next newsletter, too.
Entries must be received by Sunday, April 25th and can be sent by email to or by posting on the Facebook event page. Winners will be contacted by Sunday, May 2nd.
This contest is open to Sherwood Forrest residents only.
Good luck and happy drawing!
SFRA Plant Swap 2021!
A lot of neighbours have beautiful mature gardens while others are looking to grow or expand their gardens. Do you have any perennials you are splitting this spring and are able to share?
Did you start too many seedlings and don’t know what to do with them?
Are there any specific plants you’re looking for?
Post a message on the Sherwood Forrest Facebook event page (of what you have to share or what you’re looking for) to help connect with a neighbour who could help you out! Once you have a match, you can Direct Message (DM) each other to arrange a porch pickup.
Be well, stay safe and enjoy your gardens!

AGM RECAP
The first-ever virtual SFRA Annual General Meeting (AGM) via Zoom was a complete success. We had over 100 online attendees. We were also fortunate to have Councillor Matt Mahoney and, for the first time, our MPP, Rudy Cuzzetto. Both were gracious with their time and participated in the full 2-hour meeting.

detailed minutes!
