Niagara-on-the-Lake's Community Garden will be back next spring and it's going to be bigger and better.

It's going to double it's size over the winter months ahead of the 2021 season.

Crews from All Green Irrigation and Sykes Landscaping will get to work this week.

All Green is donating an irrigation system extension and Sykes Landscaping will expand the garden beds for a discounted price.

The garden is located behind the library and volunteers use it grow tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini and more.

A portion of this year's harvest went to the Newark Neighbours Food Bank.
