Not all dog parks are created equal. 🐾

From nature trails to off-leash zones, finding the right "vibe" is key to a safe, high-quality outing. 🌳✨

Master the gold standard of park etiquette:

Residents Object to Sewage Tank in Thanjavur Park

Thanjavur residents in Pookollai strongly object to a new sewage tank in their AMRUT park. They want the project stopped and the tank moved.

Residents in Thanjavur are fighting to stop a sewage tank from being built in a park. This park was made in 2017 for people to enjoy, not for waste tanks.

It's from my friend, Jeff, whom I originally met off of Mastodon, back in 2022. We met in person in 2023 & exchanged plants🪴We've stayed friends over the years. We are working towards similar community building goals, in separate areas of the island. Ideally, would love to have a full food security, localized food systems 'spine', running West-East/South-North, across #VancouverIsland.
Jeff lives up island with his wife & kids. He also works in #nonprofit #FoodSecurity & #environmental #stewardship. He works for #Greenways #LandTrust in #CampbellRiver :

This shows some of the work they've done at Maple Park Community Garden in partnership with #Strathcona Regional District. They acquired that land to steward/grow, earlier this year 💚👩‍🌾👨‍🌾👏

Thank you to the Town of #ViewRoyal for the funding for us to build an #accessible composting bathroom with a wheelchair ramp. We finished the pathway leading to the ramp. All possible due to the funding provided by View Royal town council 🙌

#Free #pears & #apples in Gorge Waterway Park. Please only pick what you can eat while walking or enjoying rest time, at the park. That way, there's enough for more folks in the community to also enjoy fresh Summer fruits 😊
