Some beauties await you at the entrance of the Firestick Cafe...and we don't even have to mention the beauties that await you inside! (We're talking about the food of course!)

Father's Day is fast approaching and things are hoppin' here at Solar Gardens and the Firestick Cafe. Not much time for a fancy newsletter so we'll just list the salient points so you can get an idea of what's coming up at Solar Gardens in the very near future (ie this weekend)!

The Fourth Annual Viewing of the Urns...

Have you been y'urn'ing to see some urns?
Every year we spend a week doing something we just love to do. We have a lot fun planting up all of our huge urns that are scattered about the gardens with our beautiful (and large) succulents. Then we invite you all to come out and see them in all of their glory at our Annual Viewing of the Urns weekend. That's this weekend - Father's Day weekend. So we hope you bring your pop and 'pop' by and stroll the grounds and view away!

We have 6 more musical evenings planned in the conservatory this summer.
Come and enjoy an intimate evening with our talented artists. Sit back while we serve you a 5 plate dinner from the Firestick (included in the ticket price) leisurely throughout the concert.

Bring POP and POP by on POP's Day and Make Your Own Pizza...

We've been noticing that our clients just LOVE to make their own pizzas, either in conjunction with their private class, office party, retirement party, wedding or to have any other excuse for a get together. So if you're not inclined to get a group together for a "make your own" pizza party, here's a great chance to make your own pizza.

Just pop out between 11am and 6pm on Father's Day, top your pizza and we'll bake it in the wood fired oven for you. NO RESERVATIONS REQUIRED!

We've been Written up...

livingspacesfirestick

The Star Phoenix Living Spaces magazine wrote a very flattering 4 page article about the Firestick Cafe.

It has a picture of our "not so unphotogenic" Chef Cory and 3 of our Firestick recipes.

Click here to pop on over to read it. While you're there be sure to print off the recipes and give them a try at home.

1 more time for High Tea at 3...

Our last High Tea at 3 for 2015 is on Canada Day. There won't be any more High Teas until Mother's Day of 2016.

Book your spot (of tea) online by clicking here.

You won't just enjoy tea, but you'll be treated to tea sandwiches (without the crust - can't have the crust!), a selection of fresh fruit and dainties....and trifle (can't forget the trifle!). And of course we'll use the fine china.

It's all seems so civilized!

We'll have some lovely 'packed full' assorted succulent hanging baskets and table 'centrepiece ready' terra cotta pots on special on Father's Day.

Who can resist?

More PUBLIC succulent bowl classes...

DSC02333 1

Seems as though you can't get enough of the public succulent bowl classes so we're breaking tradition (we love to shake things up here at Solar Gardens once in awhile) and offering 2 more public succulent bowl classes on July 19 and August 2 both at 1:30pm. These are the last 2 public bowl classes offered until Spring 2016. This could be the perfect activity for when all of your summer visitors flood in and you need to find something to entertain them.

There's also 3 more public classes you can choose on June 20 at 4pm, 21 at 1:30pm and July 1 (CANADA DAY) at 1:30pm. If you attend the Canada Day bowl class you can also attend the High Tea right after it.

Just click here to register for them.

Thinking of a summer party or need a place for your staff meeting?

DSC02326 1

Our most popular private function has been the "make your own pizza" party. Hang by the pool, top your own pizza, maybe preorder some appetizers, throw on some tunes and chill! You can even combine it with a class if you'd like an activity.

Fire us off an email (solargardenclasses@gmail.com) to book your group party and make all the arrangements. We offer this to groups of 10 or more!

As you can see..that's a lot going on.

We do hope we've offered you a fine selection of events and activities to choose from to get you away from the city this summer and out to our beautiful little "hidden bliss" and "country oasis" as quoted from the Living Spaces article.

Hope you can visit soon...and don't forget POP!

Succulently yours,

Roger, Chris, Quin and Dexter
