Full on park season has officially arrived. There will many of us wanting enjoy the green space, so a few tips for enjoyment.  If you love the park, then these are no-brainers and easy peasy!

Please check the calendar on this website for permitted events in the park.  We try and keep it updated as possible ;-)  Got any park info you want to share with us, please do via our facebook page and/or email us via contact page.  Follow us on twitter @FriendsofTriBel. 

This website is designed to be self serving resource for patrons.  Amongst other great info, under the tab 'Using the Park' you will find under 'Key Park Contact info' helpful for park/city contacts.  The Friends consists of volunteer community members that care for the park and it's green space.  Which means, it's on our own time, responses may not be immediate.

-  Do have a picnic on the grass, bring the kids, friends, family.

- Do be respectful to the green space i.e. don't lock bikes to young trees, slackliners use tree protection. No zip-lines, please.

- Do share the green space with others and meet some new people.

- Be kind, considerate and let's all get along .e. no loud amplification, watch the 'smoking', use some tact and common sense.

- The park is surrounded by residential homes, boisterious noise past 11-12 is not welcome.

- Leave ZERO FOOTPRINT. Clean up after yourself.  If the bins are full, take your rubbish with you.

Fireworks - There are no offical 'permitted' or sanctioned by the City fireworks in the park.  Attend at your own risk.  So, please be careful and responsible.  

Cheers!

Free compost day again. April 23rd at 11am till it's gone. Good for all gardens, food, plants etc. Pile will be located at north end by Crawford and Dundas West.  Please help yourself to what you 'need' so that everyone gets some for their gardens.  Hosted by our Ward 19 Councillor, Mike Layton.

Farmers' Market starts it's 10th season on May 3rd.  It's a soft opening, not all the vendors will be there because it's still early in the growing season. Nonetheless, come up and welcome in the season and let's get the ball rolling to get Tuesdays back into your weeklly routine.  Look forward to: asparagus, VQA rotation, popsicles, mushrooms, baked goods, artisan bread, vegetable bounty, cheese, meats and the list goes on.  Come June, we want TBFM to become your cut flower destination - of the chemical free, organic locally grown kind.  We have two vendors bringing so lots for everyone.  

Despite the breakin, the seedlings are flourishing.  Good work by the dedicated green house members.  If your interested in becoming part of the green house gang, email the This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.  through our contact page.  Zack will set you up.

This past weekend the greenhouse door was vandalized.  Bummer, because seedlings were being grown and cared for.  Not sure how many died or not at this time.  Zack responded quickly and did a quick temp repair.  UPDATE:  No seedling casualties! phew.

Weather is looking up. Yep, the usual March muck in the park, bear with it folks.  Spring is just around the corner and we are all itching to get out to the park.  Please remember PATH SHARING.  All paths in the park are shared aka multi-use, this is official in all parks.  No one group owns it ;-)  Be considerate and mindful of what's up ahead (i.e. kids, bikes, strollers, joggers, pets, wheelchairs, pedestrians) of you on the path for everyone's safety and enjoyment.  Taking a pause, going around, slowing down takes but a moment and helps us just slow down in this fast paced world of ours. Thank you!
