April - what a blast - Earth month and caring for our planet.
At Willow Park Ecology Centre’s Earth Day event 35 people enjoyed the health benefits of socializing while keeping their hands busy with park stewardship. Next stewardship days take place on Thursdays from 4–6 pm, and one Sunday afternoons. Teachers and parents, contact us to have your students come as we have a few dates left. We are proud to be part of a local network of citizens supporting the Town of Halton Hills and our neighbours in advancing more sustainable lifestyles during these times of change.
