On September 23rd, this tour will showcase examples of planting and maintenance strategies for both Garry oak woodlands and riparian areas adjacent to the Skookumchuck River, ecologically-based timber harvesting techniques, and prairie/pollinator habitat restoration.

Fireside Chats

With fall just around the corner, our Fireside Chats return this September! Our first Fireside Chat of the season will focus on Wildland Fire. Featuring NNRG Restoration Forester Gustavo Segura Flores, we’ll discuss how his newest experience as a wildland firefighter wasn’t just about putting out fires once they’ve started.

Audience participation is always a key part of these chats, so join us with your questions, observations, and favorite cozy beverage! 

Join us virtually on September 16th at 7:30 p.m.

You can find past Fireside Chats on our YouTube channel.
