Weekend itineraries: support local this holiday season

Head to Greenland Garden Centre for Lights in the Park this holiday! They’ve transformed their botanical garden into a winter wonderland display of colours and animals. Take a look at their website for hours and check them out before the lights go off on December 31. Make sure to bring a donation for the Strathcona Christmas Bureau and Salvation Army. Pssst…. If you head to Greenland this Sunday, bring your furry friends along to get a photo with Santa supporting the Edmonton Humane Society (bring your own phone or camera).

New restaurant alert! ZIGLE opened its doors on Broadmoor Boulevard at the start of this month and serves authentic Korean bulgogi dishes. They have a menu full of mouth-watering dishes that include some classic favourites with a Korean twist. Find them next to Sherlock’s and welcome them to Sherwood Park this weekend.
