St. Margaret's Cemetery Rain Garden Project Starts This Thursday
Tuesday, October 27, 2026 at 8:40AM The long-awaited rain garden project at St. Margaret's Cemetery will begin this Thursday, October 29th, managed by Raincoast Earthworks. The project is expected to take a few weeks to complete.
Important Parking Notice:
Machinery on site: Trucks and large heavy machinery will be operating in the parking area.
Keep area clear: Please keep the parking lot entirely clear of vehicles starting Thursday and throughout the duration of the work.
Project Overview :
This project marks an important step in environmental stewardship and the expansion of natural burial areas. A 48m x 10m corridor along the northern border (shared with Capernwray Bible Centre) will be transformed using shallow depressions, rock, and native plants to naturally manage water runoff, reduce surface erosion, and remove invasive blackberries.
