WALBRAN PARK RESTORATION – Saturday May 29 from 1 to 3 pm

Please help Friends of Uplands Park. We will be removing Daphne laureola and bur chervil along Dennison Road.  Tools and gloves provided with Covid protocols followed.
There is very little parking (about 5 spots) on Dennison Road where we will meet, so plan ahead to bike, carpool or walk.
 
UPLANDS PARK – Friends of Uplands Park Sunday May 30 from 1 to 3 pm

Meet on Sunday at 1pm at the Cattle Point marine kiosk.  We will be removing Scotch broom through the park and crow garlic at Cattle Point.

LOUISE GOULET has created and donated signs for identifying the native wildflowers planted by the students of Ecole Willows Elementary School. The area off Dorset Road was formerly part of Uplands Farm and had virtually no native plants but was covered by English ivy and other invasives.

Oak Bay Parks removed the multitude of Norway maple trees, the students removed the ivy, and adult volunteers removed the poisonous Daphne. Students then planted about $12,000 worth of native plants!

Take a walk along the crescent trail to find the flowers. MANY THANKS to LOUISE!
