We have a new adventure starting June 22, 2021! Here is the information on this adventure:
Please join us on Tuesday evenings this summer for a season of social stewardship through Biodiversity Conservation in the Centennial Natureground and Whispering Woods β tucked away in a corner of Brentwood, in northwest Calgary. Following closely on the 2021 Earth Day theme of Restore our Earth, this yearβs World Environment Day, June 5, will kick off the UN Decade of Ecosystem Restoration β all of which fits into Calgaryβs own biodiversity initiatives and aspirations. And, it all comes together nicely under the 2021 theme for the International Day for Biological Diversity: Weβre Part of the Solution. As weβre still all in the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it seems like the perfect year to join in with communal stewardship right here in Brentwood β with plenty of space to keep 2 metres apart.
