IN-PERSON PROGRAM
It’s warm, the days are long, and the shrubs outside are waving their branches…beckoning you to come learn about plants! Come join SPES Educator Anna Bondartchouk for a casual and good-humoured outing to a local trail – all to touch, smell, and get to know some truly iconic greenery. We’ll see what we see and learn a few cool facts about plants together along the way. Learn some common plants, where they like growing, how they reproduce, and whether they have a funny smell or not.

We gratefully acknowledge that the land on which we gather and help steward is the unceded and traditional territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) Nation, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nation. Since time immemorial, Coast Salish peoples have lived reciprocally with the land, harvesting and cultivating foods and medicines and practicing ceremony. The abundance of these lands and waters, which enables us to live, work, and play here today, is a result of the past and on-going stewardship and advocacy of the Coast Salish peoples.
