Commit to keeping Barton Street East green this summer by joining our weekly Barton Street Stewardship events. Every Wednesday from 5 to 7 pm.
We will care for the seven green spaces along Barton Street through activities such as invasive species removal, native plantings, litter cleanups, pruning, and more.
During these meetings, volunteers will learn how to perform basic maintenance at various green spaces, including plant identification, weeding, pruning, mulching, and more. You'll also learn about the amazing 7 Low Impact Development (LID) depave sites along Barton St E, designed to manage stormwater runoff by utilizing natural processes, and gain valuable skills to help steward green spaces across Hamilton.
Volunteers will also learn about the benefits of native plants and why we prioritize them at our sites.
