Conservation Area Connections
Your local conservation authority or Provincial Park can be a rich source of knowledge and offers access to natural areas.
Apply For Grants
School ground greening is a very popular and widespread movement in Canada, and many grants exist for student-led projects.
Themed Gardening
If your greening project is a garden, it can have extra impact if you focus on one theme.
Create Shade
Planting a tree is a long-term commitment to a healthy earth: promoting shade, oxygen, and green space.
Grow Local Species at School
Think local, grow local to cut down on carbon emissions and build biodiversity.
Nature Study Area
Nature study areas (no-mow zones) are outdoor spaces that are left to grow into rich spaces that increase biodiversity over time.
Identify Invasive Plants
Invasive plants are non-native species that dominate native species in natural areas. Through education and action, students can help reduce the spread of these plants.
Ready, Set, Get Outside
Prepare seasonal activities and supplies so students and teachers can get outside easily and frequently.
Come One, Come All
Invite families and community members into your garden oasis through creative outreach. This can be a great fundraiser as well.
