A Stewardship Activity in Recognition of Your Donation

Your 2.5 hour outing with Les Amis’s conservation team will include a guided nature discovery walk on Mount Royal, followed by one of the following environmental stewardship activities:

Invasive Plant Management

Russian knapweed and common buckthorn hinder the survival and regeneration of Mount Royal’s woodlands, leading to severe consequences for the area’s fauna and flora. During your activity, you will help control these invasive species by uprooting or cutting them.
Wednesdays or Thursdays, from May to October 
or

Plantation Follow-Up

A follow-up of planted vegetation is carried out over a period of 5 years after they are planted. This monitoring helps deepen the understanding of the factors influencing plant growth and survival based on the characteristics of the intervention sites, while also improving strategies for future plantations.
Wednesdays or Thursdays in June
