A mature pine plantation with great regen, and a sugar maple dominant hardwood stand that was recently harvested with a mechanized processor. There are also wetlands on the property that we can visit, or hike through crown land to other sections of the Amabel Tract. Please join us, rain or shine. Registration: Continue reading →

Our Annual General Meeting will take place on Saturday, February 24th starting at 10AM (doors open 9:30). We will begin with an interesting and enlightening presentation by Glenn Trivett, an Ojibway knowledge keeper and medicine man and is a member of the Odawa Midewiwin medicine society. Glenn has traveled extensively throughout Ontario in initiatives related to Indigenous youth empowerment and healthy relationships. Glenn has learned about Indigenous history from elders, anthropologists and his spiritual leader in Wikwemikong. His unique presentation style and perspective leaves those he touches with a much stronger understanding of the issues and hope for the future. Glenn currently works at M’Wikwedong Native Cultural Resource Centre as their Cultural Coordinator.

A week prior, we were almost down to bare ground but in Grey-Bruce it doesn’t take long to get back into full-on winter and the snow delivered in time for the event! Snowshoes were definitely required, and members were treated ot a fascinating tour of this varied member property. Picture gallery in member area. Thanks, as always, to Larry Cluchey for supplying pics and captions.
