***Please note at the present time Astonished! staff and volunteers do not provide personal care (washroom needs).

*** Weather conditions are unpredictable and there is no accessible indoor space or shelter at the garden. Our general rule of thumb is to postpone an outdoor event if the percentage of the chance of rain/storms is 40% and higher with no indoor space readily available. We will typically make the call no later than 11:30 am on the day of the event. As weather conditions can change quickly, we kindly ask that Core Members have an alternate transportation or pickup plan available in the event of unexpected inclement weather. If weather conditions shift rapidly, we encourage group homes and support teams to be prepared to arrange pickup or a safe ride home, as there is limited shelter available at the garden.

***It is very important that you RSVP for events, as we use the RSVP list to communicate any weather-related cancellations, schedule changes, or important event updates.
