Interested in learning more about native and invasive plants and how to identify them? Join our experienced environmental educator, Deb Ego, on a free walk where you will learn plant identification tips, and about the relationships between plants and the critters who call the heron reserve home.
Join us for a day of community, connection and culture while we acknowledge the ongoing impacts of collonialism and the powerful teachings in Indigenous knowledge.
