The Shoreline Garden, installed as a shared project with the Environment Council of Clear, Stoney and White Lake, focuses on shoreline naturalization. This project involves mostly weeding in spring and a bit of replanting to replace the winter kill.
Abby’s Garden is a memorial garden named for Abby McNaughton, a staff member tragically killed in a car crash, and it focuses on habitats. This project involves pond maintenance, planting and harvesting herbs, as well as seeds for next year, and monitoring habitat use and building bird houses, bat house, bee house etc.
The Environment Centre (located in Peterborough) has a garden that also needs weeding and planting. The focus is on edible flowers and other plants – sort of like a colourful salad bowl! And our parking lot garden boxes need to produce ‘produce’ for use in the kitchen – tomatoes, zucchini, squash…you name it, we want the campers to eat it!
