Our 1st #MiniForest #CitizenScience event was a rousing success! We trained a core group of volunteers to measure parameters & track overall forest health & growth using protocols developed by the #NetworkOfNature & #GreenCommunitiesCanada. After this training session, the group will be able to track tree and shrub growth, soil health, flood management, biodiversity, and human interactions. #yyc

HERE WE GROW AGAIN!
As the global community marks World Biodiversity Day (May 22), Green Communities Canada (GCC) is announcing the 36 recipients of one of their biggest annual funds. The non-profit organization is calling for more biodiversity projects to focus on urban communities and social impacts.
