Programs
The Cultivation Network of Canada delivers evidence-based horticultural knowledge through four interconnected programs — each designed to connect Canadian gardeners with reliable, regionally relevant research.
Evidence updates
Canadian horticultural researchers produce valuable, regionally specific findings — but that work rarely reaches the gardeners who could benefit from it. Evidence Updates translates current peer-reviewed research into accessible summaries, published regularly and archived for members. Each update is cited, regionally tagged, and written for gardeners rather than specialists.
A national journal
The Cultivation Network of Canada has a national journal, Cultivation, launching in late 2026. Published four times per year, it brings together horticultural research, regional growing guides and practitioner perspectives in a format designed for engaged Canadian gardeners. The journal is a founding program of the Network and its most visible public face.
Roundtables & webinars
Live national conversations with researchers, growers, extension specialists, and practitioners. Roundtables bring together voices from across Canada’s growing regions to discuss evidence, share regional experience, and model the kind of national knowledge exchange that Canadian gardening has lacked. All sessions are archived and available to members.
Knowledge platform
The Network’s website serves as a permanent, searchable public archive of all programming — evidence updates, journal articles, roundtable recordings, and member discussions. A moderated members forum provides a space for gardeners to connect, ask questions, and share regionally specific experience. The platform is the infrastructure that makes the Network permanent.
