Past Projects

* ENTRANCE GARDEN AT LASALLE ENENT CENTER – $15,000 in 2023

A beautiful entrance garden featuring native plants, shrubs, and trees will welcome visitors to the new ‘LaSalle Landing’ Event Centre located at 970 Front Road in LaSalle. The garden will invite residents and visitors to take some time to connect with our natural environment.

The Entrance Garden Project was initiated by the WindsorEssex Community Foundation (WECF) who ‘in commemoration of their 40th Anniversary’ offered to donate $15,000 to the Town of LaSalle to be used to enhance the current major LaSalle endeavor along the Detroit River WaterFront. They were looking for matching funds, and the new LaSalle Community Fund (LCF) partnered with the LaSalle Horticultural Society in a Fundraiser to provide the additional $15,000.

GROUND BREAKING – NOV. 8, 2023
