Come to Nature Come To Life. Walk the Earth, Heal the Spirit.

🌿✨ Exciting News! 🌿✨

Join us at Friends of the Saskatoon Afforestation Areas as we embark on our “Come to Nature, Come to Life” capacity-building initiative!

🌳🌍 Our goal is to enhance community engagement through immersive nature experiences like hiking, wildlife observation, and environmental education. With your support, we’ll expand our reach and impact, nurturing a deeper connection with our natural world.

🦋🌲 Together, we can inspire a love for nature and cultivate environmental stewardship. Stay tuned for updates on how you can get involved and make a difference! 🌟💚 #NatureLovers #EnvironmentalEducation #CommunityEngagement #OutdoorAdventure

At Friends of the Saskatoon Afforestation Areas we enhance community engagement through our “Come to Nature, Come to Live” events. Events to connect schools, classrooms, families and youth groups with nature through activities such as nature hikes, pond-dipping, bird watching, and exploration with binoculars.

However, to expand and sustain these initiatives, we need to strengthen our capacity in educational resources and outdoor equipment.

There is no doubt about it, the Community Challenge capacity-building prize of $750 would significantly support us in acquiring essential supplies like Little John rentals, bus rentals, binoculars, field guides, and educational materials.

This investment would enrich our programs, fostering deeper connections with nature and inspiring environmental stewardship among active participants.

Join us in supporting active lifestyle learning experiences in nature! Friendsareas.ca

This website is about the Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area - an urban regional park of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The hosts are the stewards of the afforestation area. The afforestation area received its name in honour of the great humanitarian, Richard St. Barbe Baker. Richard St. Barbe Baker (9 October 1889 – 9 June 1982) was an English forester, environmental activist and author, who contributed greatly to worldwide reforestation efforts. As a leader, he founded an organization, Men of the Trees, still active today, whose many chapters carry out reforestation internationally. {Wikipedia} Email is StBarbeBaker AT yahoo.com to reach the Stewards of the Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area
