Have a bloomin’ good time on Campus Beautification Day 2024

The annual University of Manitoba Campus Beautification Day festivities take place May 23, 28 and June 6 at Bannatyne campus, Fort Garry campus, and William Norrie, respectively.

Campus Beautification Day offers community gathering for gardening activities, music, and free lunch. Gardening activities will begin at 9:00 a.m. and go until noon for all three locations. The entire university community is invited to join in the planting while connecting with coworkers and getting some fresh air.

Please bring your own gardening tools and a reusable water bottle. A free barbecue lunch at noon will follow, and everyone is encouraged to attend. Registration is required for Campus Beautification lunch for the three locations. The registration will allow you to participate in the gardening activities in the morning, attend lunch at noon, and your name will be entered for a prize draw.
