All Plots Taken This Year
2024 COMMUNITY GARDEN SPOTS AVAILABLE
Plots are approximately 10 ft. x 20 ft, running east / west. They have been tilled and are ready to go, weather permitting. Two still available.
Contact a CMMM Board member or email cmmmcutknife@gmail.com to arrange for garden space.
BONUS: We expect to have water onsite this year via a water wagon, kindly donated by Glen Brebner. We are confident it is functional.
Guidelines are as follows:
- Plant rows east / west.
- Plots are free but you must care for your plot throughout the season. This includes weeding and harvesting.
- If your plot is not maintained, you will be refused a plot the following year.
Produce is not to be harvested by anyone other than the grower. It belongs to the person who planted it.

So Many to Thank Today
TOMAHAWK PARK CLEAN-UP
We had a great group of volunteers show up at 10am. We worked through the wildfire smoke and the 30+ km winds taking at least 8 loads of tree trimmings to the Transfer Station. The Duvall House, the Station, and the Exhibit buildings were dusted and swept. Some leaves were gathered. The leaf catcher on the mower will take care of the rest. We finished up with hot dogs and squares from Cut Knife AG Foods – which were delicious!
Many thanks to the community members, former and current Board members, and staff members who took time out of their Saturday to help with spring clean-up. I wish I could name everyone who was there today but I didn’t write down names, and I also forgot to take pictures. What I can do, though, is show you a few photos of Tomahawk Park all spiffed-up for Canada Day.
Again, from all of us at the Museum, thanks so much for your support.

Landscape and Sky
Visual Arts Exhibit by Mary Ramsay
Sponsored Exclusively by Veikle Agro Inc.
The Spare Room Gallery launched its visual arts exhibition space with life-long area resident Mary Ramsay’s “Landscape and Sky”. The pastoral beauty of the rural countryside is explored in acrylics on a variety of materials including canvas, rocks, and sawblades.
FROM THE ARTIST
Living on the farm… we enjoyed watching the changes in the beauty of nature through traveling, sitting at the creek, picking berries, fishing and bringing in the harvest.
In 1987, I enrolled in a few community art classes in Cut Knife. From there, I was totally engaged in the peaceful art of painting. I started with oils, but have used acrylics for many years. My subject matter focuses on landscape and sky. Beyond canvas, I have painted on pails, milk cans, sawblades, rocks and wood to name a few.
– Mary Ramsay
“Landscape and Sky” will run at the Spare Room Gallery until Sunday, June 23. Donations to the visual arts in Saskatchewan are gratefully accepted. Small groups only as space is limited.
113 Broad Street, Cut Knife until June 23
Wednesdays 1:30 – 6:30pm & Fridays 11:00am – 4pm
