❝ If you’ve ever dreamed of exploring the Secret Garden, make plans to visit Tangled Garden in Grand Pre. It’s been more than 30 years since owner Beverly McClare broke ground on the property and over the decades it has been transformed into acres of hidden gardens, winding pathways, water features, and garden art.❞

Design by Steven Slipp, illustration by Peter Strain, foreground photo by Paul Coates, lettering by Bonnie Ross, background photo by Darren Calabrese.
The front of the Official First Day Cover features a couple of interesting design elements. One is an illustration of Rogers performing at the Dalhousie Arts Centre in Halifax in the early 1980s, based on a photograph that appeared on the cover of his posthumous release 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝐶𝑜𝑓𝑓𝑒𝑒 𝐻𝑜𝑢𝑠𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑟𝑡 𝐻𝑎𝑙𝑙. The other is the hand-lettered titles of some of Roger’s best-known songs, which appear as waves in the background of the envelope. On the back of the OFDC is a photograph of Rogers in 1979, taken by Milena Essig. The stamp was issued on July 21, 2021, just in time for 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑛𝐹𝑒𝑠𝑡 2021 - 𝑅𝑖𝑠𝑒 𝐴𝑔𝑎𝑖𝑛!
Only 500 OFDCs have been made available.
