giving back to the forest

The forest has held many adventures for our Nature Explorer group. This past week, we gave back to the forest by planting some native plants from Nith River Native Plants. Josh Shea, City of Kitchener's Natural Area Coordinator, told us about periwinkle - an invasive plant that likes to take over forest plants - and showed us how we could care for our forest by planting some native species.

The forest has nurtured us - here is one way that we can nurture the forest. We set off to plant!
