= Community Gardens Worker at Riverdale Farm      = A person calling to become a volunteer gardener

Good morning, Riverdale Farm.

Hello. I'm calling to inquire about the community gardening program at Riverdale Farm.

Yes. We're signing up volunteers to participate in our Saturday morning gardening program in our vegetable gardens.

Is it possible to garden with flowers and herbs?

Yes. We have an herb garden next to the barn and there are some floral gardens along the walkways.

Should I bring anything?

If you have a favourite gardening tool, bring it along. Oh, and a pair of gardening gloves if you have them.

Okay. I have my own gloves.

Are you an experienced gardener?

No, just a beginner. You could call me an enthusiastic gardener.

Well, my name is Anton and I look forward to meeting you.

My name is Tanya. I look forward to meeting you too.

Just come in to the red brick house in Riverdale Park. We're all meeting there at 9:30 am.

Okay, sounds good. See you next weekend.

Bye bye.
