Join us on August 16th for our very first Nature Based Solutions workshop, in partnership with Grow Calgary!

Nature Based Solutions include a broad range of collective actions that work to restore, protect and sustainably manage ecosystems to address societal challenges, such as food/water security, biodiversity loss, the climate crisis, and more.   

Listen to a variety of local experts share information on collective food security, urban reforestation projects, seed saving actions, and more! Following the presentations, you are able to spend some time exploring methods to begin implementing your own community Nature Based Solutions project, with direct support from the presenters. A small tour of the Grow Calgary garden space will also be offered. 

Presenters Include:

 

All attendees will be invited to join our new Nature Based Solutions Network, where you will receive additional support to implement your project - helping identify locations, native plant selection, soil remediation tasks, project design, volunteer coordination, communications, land access and permitting, stewardship/long-term maintenance plans, outcome monitoring, funding, and more!

** There will be blankets for participants to sit on. Please bring your own chair if you prefer. **

Funding for this workshop generously provided by the Federation of Calgary Communities - Climate Ready YYC Grant.
