Sweets & Seeds
May 16 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
If you’ve got a green thumb, a sweet tooth, or a love of supporting local makers, Sweets & Seeds is the event for you! This 3-in-1 event takes place Saturday, May 16th, 2026.
Our 7th annual Sweets & Seeds event takes place at the Big Red Church (Gordon-King Memorial United Church, 127 Cobourg) from 10am to 2pm.
The event includes:
Bake Sale
Featuring cookies, squares and much more! The bake sale is an important fundraiser for the year: all proceeds raised help pay for our insurance and help us hold fun events in the neighbourhood! Bring cash!
WANT TO HELP? We are looking for bakers who would be willing to contribute some delicious treats for the bake table. If you’d like to donate some baked goods, please email glenelmcommunity@gmail.com to be put in touch with our bake sale coordinator.
Plant & Seed Swap
A great way to diversify your garden and meet fellow plant-lovers. Get creative! Whether it’s seeds, plants you’ve started, slips that are in water developing roots or bulbs, all are welcome.
