You’ll learn how to grow and harvest your own fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Our expert speakers will share tips on how to choose the right plants for your space, how to care for them, and how to harvest them with sustainable planting, which focuses on using environmentally-friendly practices to create beautiful and healthy gardens. |
Pets & Wildlife |
Our Pets & Wildlife talks are designed to help you better understand and care for the animals in your life, whether they’re pets or wildlife that you encounter in our parks. Learn about the importance of providing proper care and attention to your pets. Pick up on methods to better communicate with your pets and respond appropriately to different behaviours. Explore the wildlife commonly found in our parks, including birds, insects, and small mammals. You’ll learn about their habitats, behaviours, and how to identify them. Our speakers will also share tips on how to observe wildlife safely and respectfully, without disturbing their natural habitats. |
