"This short trail starts in the parking lot of the elementary school. There is an #OutdoorClassroom, #VernalPonds, and #swale. Small bridges have been built over wet areas. There are small signs with information about the natural environment. Although there are blue blazes on trees, the trail is not easy to follow as it gets further from the school."

Our community learning workshops are fun, affordable (we have sliding scale available), in a beautiful orchard setting.
Many folks end up making new, local, like-minded friends through participating in our various workshops at Welland 😊

This young POC man attended his first workshop at Welland & enjoyed it. He was telling me that he's planning to grow his small apple tree in a large pot, on his apartment balcony 🙂 We helped him select a dwarf apple variety to graft for his small space needs.
