Cul-de-sac Garden

How’s that Caribbean island dream going?

No worries: You can have your own dream island right here on Marielle Court! Four of your fellow Courters have united to beautify our island boulevard garden.

We have engaged a local landscaping company with experience planning naturalized gardens, to provide both a landscape and a planting design. The goal is to create an entryway to Marielle Court that uplifts Court residents, adds to property desirability, is drought- and salt-resistant, and requires minimal maintenance. The Court Group of Four are working away to obtain municipal approval and clear the existing ground cover.

Do you want to help? There will be 3 opportunities to move the project ahead:

• June 6 - Completion of weeding, leveling

• Date 2 TBD - Mulch distribution

• Date 3 TBD - Fall planting

If you would prefer to contribute financially, we are accepting donations which will determine the scope of the project we can undertake. Funds will support the purchase of plants, the development of the plan, initial cleanup, and ongoing maintenance. Email money transfers can be sent to mariellecourton@gmail.com. Alternatively, cash can be dropped off at unit 13. An accounting of funds received and funds spent will be available on the website, roserickardrealtor.ca/communityprojects, or upon request. With 48 units on the Court, together we can make this Marielle Court Island Dream come true!

The garden design will be finalized soon and we will have identified a range of plants that we may already have on the street. Once identified, we will post the list on the gardening project’s webpage.

Thank you for helping to make Marielle Court an even better place to live!
