Volunteer at Morton Park's Mini Forest
We're seeking volunteers to help us gather data on Mini Forests in Hamilton! Over 600 trees have been planted within just 200 m², creating a rich and diverse green space and home for many native species. Evaluating Morton Park's Mini Forest outcomes involves looking at factors such as tree growth rates, seedling survivorship, soil structure, and soil microorganisms, but we need your help! We’ll also tackle stewardship tasks, including invasive species removals. Regardless of prior experience, everyone is welcome and appreciated at this stewardship event. Make sure to bring your friends and family, let's grow together!
What to Bring / Wear:
Be sure to wear closed-toed shoes, long pants, a sunhat, sunscreen, and bring a reusable water bottle. We will provide tools, gloves, bags, and anything else we may need. But, please feel free to bring your gloves and tools.
Transportation + Parking: The 5B Pirie at Governors via Governors, bus stops at Governor’s at Huntingwood, roughly 10 minutes from the site. Additionally, bikes can be brought to the location, and there is nearby street parking available.
