Encompassing gardens and heritage sites, in communities from Windsor and Put-In-Bay Ohio, through Niagara, to Toronto and Sacket’s Harbour, New York, the Binational Heritage Peace Garden Trail launches in 2012 commemorating 200 years of peace between Canada and the United States and the unique history we share. Free and open to the public year-round, this legacy garden trail begins with interpretation of the Bicentennial of the War of 1812 - through natural and built landscapes and cultural activities that tell the stories of these communities - and will continue to grow beyond 2014 to mark other anniversaries and binational events.

Spring in the Gardens
After what has been a very long winter for many Canadians, spring is finally well on its way. Tree buds are swelling, spring bulbs are bursting into bloom and there is a scent of spring in the air, but are you missing it? You just can’t soak up the earthy, greeny smells of spring from your armchair: you’ve got to get outdoors. And why not do so in one of Canada’s public gardens?
