Environmental Stewardship and Invasive Plant Removal in North Saanich

The Greater Victoria Green Team, a program of the charity Green Teams of Canada, organizes environmental stewardship activities in a local urban forest in North Saanich. Volunteers participate in the removal of invasive English Ivy to improve the health of native trees and shrubs. This initiative is open to people of all ages and experience levels, providing all necessary tools, supplies, and safety guidance. Participants should prepare by wearing suitable outdoor clothing and sturdy, closed-toe footwear. The activity facilitates community engagement, provides environmental education, and promotes personal well-being. This program is supported by the Victoria Airport Authority and operates within the traditional territories of the W̱SÁNEĆ Nations.
