Restoring Niagara Naturally- https://landcareniagara.com/
A big thanks to the Port Colborne homeschooled nature co-op who came out to our Re-Leaf nursery last Wed! These kids were a huge help with weeding & spreading mulch in our nursery! After all their hard work, they got to learn about native trees/shrubs and how to ID them. 🌳🌿

LCN now has a pollinator garden in our ReLeaf nursery, with 12 native species so far! These gardens support pollinator populations of 🐦, 🐝, 🦋 and 🪲 by providing food and habitat. By creating this space, these keystone species have a spot to refuel & rest before heading off for more pollination.

A big thank you to the Walker team for the engaging conversations and informative tour last Friday. We learned so much about the site’s operations, from composting & resource recovery to agricultural rehabilitation, and how these efforts contribute to conversation around long-term sustainability! 🌎🌱

Are you planning an eco-friendly garden for 2026? Did you know you can start this Fall? Fall is a perfect time to plant your native wildflower seeds. By sowing prior to the first frost and before the ground freezes, your seeds will naturally stratify over winter and be ready to sprout in the spring!

If you would like to join our last nursery maintenance day of the summer on August 30th (9AM-12PM), send us a DM or email [email protected] to sign up. All volunteers will receive a native pollinator plant! Hope to see you there! 🌳🌼
Thank you to all the volunteers that came out to our nursery maintenance day on July 26th! You all made a huge difference as now our trees can receive full sunlight again, and don’t worry there is still plenty of milkweed for the monarchs!🌳👏

Our Niagara Glen Bat Night was an exciting evening, with 30 big brown bats caught, multiple mist and harp nets deployed and plenty of hands-on learning for our incredible volunteers. We had some amazing (and very "batty") conversations about the important role bats play in our local ecosystems.
