We’re proud to give back to the community that supports us. At this year’s Fall Gathering, we’ll be accepting donations for the Stittsville Food Bank — appreciated, but never expected. Every little bit helps our neighbours, and together we can make a difference. 💛🚜

🎃✨ Exciting Update for Our Annual Fall Gathering & Pumpkin Giveaway! ✨🎃 We’re thrilled to share that two amazing face painters will be joining us to add an extra dash of magic to this year’s festivities! 💛 Here’s a little note from our face painters: HoneyDrop Body Art loves adding touches of magic to special events all around Ottawa. Imagination knows no bounds! For over 10 years, I've had the pleasure of helping little ones transform into their wildest dreams. From shimmering unicorns and mighty superheroes to ferocious dinosaurs and even a delightful piece of broccoli, I am passionate about bringing their unique visions to life. I can't wait to make your special day at the Annual Fall Gathering and Pumpkin Giveaway unforgettable with some fun and creative face painting! Bring your little pumpkins and let their imaginations run wild — we can’t wait to see all the colourful creations! 🌈🎨
