Garry Oak Ecosystems – The southeastern tip of Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands is home to a rare and precious ecosystem. In this program, we’ll explore the Indigenous knowledge of this unique ecosystem, the diverse animals and plants that live within it, and how we can each support this rare environment.

Ecological Restoration - In urban areas, natural spaces are often degraded or damaged though development, pollution, and invasive species. Come learn about what ecological restoration is, and the role we can play in improving these spaces to support us and wildlife.

Watershed & Wetlands – Follow the rain into the Swan Lake watershed to learn about our personal choices that impact our water, the vital role of wetlands in a climate crisis, and the diverse plant and animal life that this ecosystem supports.

Ecological Stewardship – Stewardship is creating a sense of connection, care, and responsibility for each other and the natural world that supports us. This program is designed to engage and encourage young stewards to seek out ways to support our environment and put their skills into action.

Animal Metamorphosis - Follow the lifecycles of various creatures from egg to adult and witness the massive changes that occur as an animal grows new body parts, loses others, and transforms their shape. Insect and amphibian metamorphosis will be explored as we learn more about the science of change!
