Grassroots, local efforts, all together, are what make change. Celebrate the works of inspiring Albertans making a difference for native plants and their habitats with projects of all types and sizes, all supporting native plants in Alberta. This year’s workshop strives to recognize and appreciate the cumulative impact these efforts can make.
Our Workshop is split into 4 sessions:
- Session 1 – Seeds of Action
- Session 2 – Growing Connections
- Session 3 – Supporting Native Landscapes
- Session 4 – Sowing the Future
