Giant Garage sale raises $1,900!

On July 6, our Giant Gordon Head Garage Sale raised $1900 selling used goods and delightful snacks!

Three Gherkins hosted the event on Granada Cr., and five neighbours joined in with their own sale to make it an massive event and much bigger draw to the garage sale crowd.

We probably had the best snack sales of any neighbourhood sale — with Syrian treats provided by Hanaa and Mahmoud, Chinese noodles from Linda, and cookies for those with a sweet tooth!

Here are some photos from a busy, exhausting and exciting day (plus one from the day before!)
