Our popular silent auction will launch in person at the event on May 17, 2026, and will continue online for the following week so everyone has a chance to participate.

We are currently seeking donations for our silent auction. If you are able to sponsor a prize, we would love to support your business through promotion at the event and on our Facebook page.

As always, 100% of proceeds will be donated to the Juravinski Cancer Centre through the BRIGHT Run/Walk for Breast Cancer Research.

Shop plants of various sizes, trees, and more! Grab lunch at the BBQ, and check out new to you treasures at the yard sale! All proceeds benefit the Onodaga Community Hall & the Middleport Heritage Society!
