The City of St. Catharines wants to know what you think about the annual rain barrel sale and tree giveaway.

An online survey has been posted on Engage STC as officials consider the future of these popular events.

The rain barrel sale is a spring tradition in the Garden City, with residents purchasing the barrels at a subsidized cost of $40.

It had to be cancelled this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The next free tree giveaway will be taking place this October.

The online survey closes on Friday August 21st.
