The gardeners of Kingston’s Bellevue House are participating in the Grow-a-Row campaign this year! Bellevue house was once home of Sir John A. Macdonald, Canada’s first prime minister. Bellevue house features a vegetable garden, and when possible only period tools and historic techniques are used in planting and maintaining this garden. The gardeners wear costumes typical of working people in the 1840’s. Bellevue House’s garden has already donated kale, lettuce, and zucchini, and its gardeners anticipate donating beans, peas, carrots, tomatoes, and potatoes in the future.
