🌿 Land Stewardship Day: Ivy Removal
Inspired by the work of Dr. Jennifer Grenz 🌿

🗓️ Date: Saturday, April 26th, 2025
🕒 Time: 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM
✔️ Check-In: 1:45 PM
📍 Location: Porpoise Bay Provincial Park, ancestral village site of Klaalth

Join us for a meaningful 2-hour community gathering in the spirit of reciprocity and care, as we remove invasive ivy from the trees at the ancestral village site of Klaalth.

Guided by the teachings in Medicine Wheel for the Planet by Dr. Jennifer Grenz, this gathering offers a chance to move from learning into action; to reconnect with the land and actively contribute to its healing.

Invasive ivy, while often overlooked, can strangle native trees, limit understory growth, and disrupt delicate forest ecosystems. By clearing ivy from these spaces, we help restore vitality, light, and breath back into these living beings.

This is not just a work party; it is an act of land-based healing, community resilience, and honouring ancestral spaces. We’ll close with shared snacks and conversation; a time to reflect, connect, and celebrate what we’ve tended together.
