Smoky Bay is an expressive, flavourful wine straight from the Australian heartland. Distinct varietal aromas of passion fruit with delicate floral perfumes. This is a refreshing white wine featuring delightful flavors of ripe pear and green apple. It is a nicely balanced wine that delivers a clean delicate finish typical of the Pinot Grigio style.

Annual Plant
Sale
Plants from local gardeners and local growers!
​
The Garden Club has many volunteers who donate their time and efforts to make our plant sale a great success.
​
One of the reasons for so many repeat customers at the plant sale is the many donations from so many Niagara Region nurseries and businesses. We are truly grateful for their incredible generosity and support.
WLMH Garden
Like all Grimsbyites, members of the Grimsby Garden Club are excited to have a brand new hospital building in our town. Before the first shovel hit the ground, the garden club began working with the hospital building team to plan our involvement.
​
Grimsby Garden Club is providing the plans and plant material for ~4000 square feet of garden beds on both sides of the promenade sidewalk leading to the front door of the hospital.
​
Planting is expected in Spring 2027.​​
Elm Street Gardens
Members of the Grimsby Garden Club have been tending the gardens along Elm Street, adjacent to the Balsam Lane parking lot, for many years. We have recently rejuvenated the beds. The garden bed under the tree is full of Ontario native plants.
Volunteers tend the garden beds for an hour or two most Monday mornings, spring through fall.
2026 Garden Tour
Currently planned for July 4.
