Outdoor Activities

Delki Dozzi

Delki Dozzi has a beautiful community garden. The mission of the Delki Dozzi Community Garden is to engage residents of all ages and abilities in learning about productive and innovative gardening practices. “Our garden produces food for neighbourhood families in need, and for the benefit of our volunteers without whom the garden would not continue to exist.  Excess food is donated to the Best Start Hub.”

During the summer months, there’s a super well-maintained cycling track. During the winter months, you can take a walk or jog the slow plowed track.
