- the intention -
🌨️ Go outside
🌱 Embrace the season
👯‍♂️ Wander and wonder with your neighbours
👀 Notice and reflect on the land
- the invitation -
Looking to get outside more? Join this 1.5hr(ish) monthly wander to wonder about the species and ecologies that follow Marsh Creek between Glenwood Cemetery and Picton Bay. It's a chance to observe seasonal changes, meet your neighbours, get to know the landscape and the many plants and animals that use it, and contribute to collective mapping and community science.
Everyone is welcome. There is no fee to participate.
- the offer -
With Marsh Creek as our guide, we'll weave through Delhi Park to observe what's on the grow, which cute dogs are at the park, and take mental notes of various plant and animal kin. Once we get to the Bay, we'll document them together over tea as part of a larger living map project.
We'll supply the map(s) and hot tea.
- the ask -
That you bring your whole self, your curiosity, your willingness to embrace the season and a sense of play! You listen fully to others, tread lightly, and ask lots of questions - especially the ones that feel 'stupid'.
Bring yourself dressed for the weather, and a cup or mug for tea. We go rain, snow or shine.
- the details -
We'll start the wander from the east end of Rotary Park under the spruce trees - this is across the street from the entrance to Glenwood Cemetery (where you can park for free). Becky will be walking back to Rotary Park at the end, but folks are also welcome to depart from other locations along the way.
The wander will be approximately 2km in total on roads, grass, gravel and dirt paths with several opportunities to take traverse steep and uneven surfaces.
We'll start the walk shortly after 10am, if you’re late or lost you can text Becky at 613-503-1309 and are welcome to try to come find us or meet us somewhere along the way.
