Calendar of Events 2024
Normally, over twenty work parties are organized each year. Activities include bank stabilization work in Grandon and Beach Creeks, tree planting in riparian areas, removal of invasive plants such as lamium, ivy, and Himalyan blackberries and assistance to the Town of Qualicum Beach in weed removal and upkeep at Seaside Nature Park. We also work with other organizations on restoration projects in the Little Qualicum River Estuary.
To help spread awareness, we participate in community events like Family Day and Beach Day.
