Every Sunday afternoon through the end of November, help to restore our globally endangered Garry Oak ecosystem by removing invasive plants like English ivy (Hedera helix), thistles (Cirsium sp.), Himalayan Blackberry (Rubus armeniacus)and Daphne (Daphne laureola). We’ll also be planting native species too! Instruction, gloves, tools and refreshments provided. Meet at 1:00pm at the field at the Beach Drive entrance to Cattle Point. All ages and abilities welcome to this free activity that helps our Naturehood. Our goal is to make restoration events accessible for everyone, however some terrain and seasonal conditions within the park may provide challenges. If you have concerns or questions, please reach out to us! This event is taking place on the ancestral territory of the lək̓ʷəŋən people, known today as the Songhees Nation and Esquimalt Nation Nations. Friends of Uplands Park respects and honours their vital relationship with these lands and waters and how they have stewarded them through countless generations.
