Gardens Ottawa History Presentation

This is a super interesting video of a slide presentation for anybody interested in Ottawa’s garden history dating back to the 1800’s. It is very much consistent with the “Lost Ottawa” initiative on Facebook. As you go through the video, feel free to pause the video on any slide. This is an excerpt from the Ottawa Gardens Symposium held in March 2019.
