July is upon us. That means we’ve got some amazing summer programs lined up for you! Due to COVID-19, all programs will continue to be online, but we are closely monitoring the situation until it’s safe for us to reintroduce in-person events.
In the meantime, we want these programs to be accessible to you, so all of them will be free (with a pay-what-you-can option to support our virtual programming). We’d also be happy to provide any support for people that may be having a hard time connecting with us in this new way, so feel free to send any inquiries/feedback to communications@wildbirdtrust.org.
Without further ado, here are some of the events you can look forward to this summer:
WBT Volunteer Orientation – July 19th (1 PM)
Are you a member that wants to get more involved with WBT? Or just generally want to do some hands on work with our organization? Join us for a volunteer orientation! The event will include a general presentation about WBT, how to volunteer, as well as details about specific roles.
Arts & Crafts with Invasive Plants – July 22nd (1 PM)
Make arts & crafts using common invasive plants right in your own backyard. Projects include producing pigments for painting, and making a nature notebook!
Virtual Scavenger Hunt – July 26th (1PM)
Learn about invasives & plant families in your backyard through a virtual scavenger hunt! Discover how to identify plants, while enjoying a fun relaxed activity for the whole family.
This event is generously sponsored by the TD Parks People Grant
