SUMMARY:Hike\, Supper and Evening with Dr. Iain Provain (Ottawa\, ON)
DESCRIPTION:Skyline Trail Walk (2:30pm)\nJoin us in Gatineau Park for a walk along the Skyline Trail that was built in the 1930s and is one of the oldest trails in the park. Features of this trail include panoramic views of the Gatineau Valley and the City of Ottawa. Meet at 264 Kingsmere at 2:30 pm (please RSVP for directions or if you need a ride). \nPotluck Supper (6pm)\nPlease RSVP and let us know what you plan to bring so that we can plan accordingly. \nPresentation by Dr. Iain Provain (7:30pm)\nAm I my Brother’s Keeper? And What about the Planet?\nHoly Scripture exhorts us to be both people-keepers AND earth-keepers\, but the former is still more widely understood in the Church than the latter.  This talk explores both themes and their interconnections. \nDr. Iain Provain\, professor of Biblical Studies at Regent College in Vancouver\, is author of many books including Tenants in God’s Land: Earth-Keeping and People-Keeping in the Old Testament \nIf you are unable to attend all three parts of the event\, feel free to attend the parts that you can. \nFor more details please email Paul Heintzman or see our Facebook event page.

SUMMARY:Shrub & Tree Transplanting (King Township\, ON)
DESCRIPTION:Want to care for your local ecosystem?\nLive in the Greater Toronto Area?\nJoin us at the Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust’s StarCliff Nature Reserve helping the Land Trust care for this ecologically unique and significant property. The earth will thank you. And so will your body\, mind and spirit! \nJoin the Facebook Event\nThere might not be ice or snow\, as the above photo suggests\, and it may actually be seasonally warm. But we don’t want anyone to be mislead. And we certainly want everyone to be dressed appropriately. \nThrough hands-on stewardship we’ll be continuing the control of Common Buckthorn and Tartarian Honeysuckle by transplanting native shrubs and trees growing on the trails into locations where those two invasive shrubs are being removed. Even if the there’s a thin layer of ice on the kettle lake\, and even a thin layer of snow\, the ground will still be moist and great for digging in! 🙂 \nOnce established\, Common Buckthorn and Tartarian Honeysuckle dominate and substantially reduce biodiversity. Our replacing the invasive plants with native ones is significant to reversing the spread and negative impact of the invasive ones and for increasing biodiversity. \nFor all the details and to RSVP\, go to http://www.oakridgesmoraine.org/volunteer.html. \n*As StarCliff is a nature reserve and there is a private residence at the opening to the property\, the street address is not publicized.

SUMMARY:Trash Clean-Up! (King Township\, ON)
DESCRIPTION:Want to care for your local ecosystem?\nLive in the Greater Toronto Area?\nJoin us at the Oak Ridges Moraine Land Trust’s StarCliff Nature Reserve helping the Land Trust care for this ecologically unique and significant property. The earth will thank you. And so will your body\, mind and spirit! \nJoin the Facebook Event\nFor this final Nature Reserve Stewardship meeting of the year\, we’ll be clearing out the trash. There’s not a lot\, and almost no small items. But there are a few large ones that will take a number of helping hands! Don’t worry\, we won’t be hauling out the old water pump pictured above. That artifact will remain where it is. At least for now. Though\, there are a few oil drums (used for floats on an old swimming raft) and a few other similarly-sized items that need to be removed. We’ll use a manual winch to assist us. \nSince StarCliff is a Monarch Waystation\,** in place of the oil drums\, we’ll scatter some seeds of native herbacious plants that monarch caterpillars and butterflies require. \nFor all the details and to RSVP\, go to http://www.oakridgesmoraine.org/volunteer.html. \n*As StarCliff is a nature reserve and there is a private residence at the opening to the property\, the street address is not publicized. \n**See http://monarchwatch.org/waystations/
