SUMMARY:Growing Old Growth - Free Evening Seminar
DESCRIPTION:About the event \n\n\n\nJoin Tal Engel of Wolftree Integrated Forest Rehabilitation as he shares methods he has developed to help dense young forests recover from a century of industrial forestry.  \nWednesday\, March 26th\, beginning at 7:00 PM at the Millard Learning Centre. (10825 Porlier Pass Rd)\nIt is often said that “time heals all wounds.” But what if\, for our second and third-growth Douglas-fir forests\, time alone may not be enough? \nWhat does it actually take to “grow” a healthy old-growth forest? In this talk\, Tal Engel of WolfTree Integrative Forest Rehabilitation will share methods he has developed to help dense young forests recover from over a century of industrial forestry\, and make the case for why the time for action is now. \nTal will deliver a 1 hour presentation\, followed by a half-hour Q&A. GCA Restoration Coordinator Adam Huggins will join for the Q&A to answer questions about the GCA’s forest restoration projects. Light refreshments will be provided. \nThis event is being held on the shared\, asserted\, unceded and traditional territories of the Hul’qumi’num-speaking First Nations Peoples and those who hold traditional rights\, responsibilities\, and Indigenous rights and title in and around what is now known as Galiano Island. \nAbout Tal \nTal is a forest restoration practitioner and regenerative farmer who lives in the Comox Valley\, British Columbia. On his family’s farm\, Honey Grove\, he researches and develops forest restoration methods and models that his organization\, WolfTree Integrative Forest Rehabilitation\, applies throughout Eastern Vancouver Island. Tal is currently working on his master’s thesis in restoration ecology.

SUMMARY:Make a Difference Week Volunteer Days
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\nFor the fourth year running\, the Galiano Conservancy is celebrating international Make a Difference Week as part of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. \nVolunteer days will take place on June 6 and 7 at the Millard Learning Centre.  Participants will get a chance to learn about and work with native plants from the nursery to the forest. \nDay 1: We will be moving native plants and setting up sustainable watering infrastructure (water mats with a wicking system) which will help us to greatly reduce the water needed to care for the plants that we grow for restoration projects and for individuals to plant in their homes. \nDay 2: We will be weeding\, mulching and caring for the Nuts’a’maat Forage Forest. \nParticipants should come prepared for the weather in comfortable clothes and shoes that they can get dirty. Please bring your own drinking water and all food needed. Friday you will have access to potable water but there will be no snacks. Galiano is only accessible by ferry so please plan accordingly with the ferry schedule. There is the potential for camping available for participants that want to do both days. Those who are interested can email nursery@galianoconservancy.ca for details. \nVolunteers help remove introduced yellow-flag iris as part of Make A Difference Week 2022
