📣Thank you to OTF for funding the Pathway Project & to everyone who helped grow the Pathway community. Our funding is now complete. Our website will remain a strong resource for our community. Stay tuned for future updates. For now, thank you for all the memories! ☀️🌎💚🙌🎉
Three years ago, we started with a Landmark Goal of 10,000 experiences connecting kids with the natural world. Today, our Landmark total is 61,318. The joy we feel at how this project has impacted our community is immeasurable. Thank you to every person who has taken part ☀️
Happy National Indigenous Peoples Day! Here is a wonderful video with Kristin Muskratt, TRACKS Oshkwazin Co-ordinator, discussing the importance of having a favourite outdoor place as part of Landmark 4. youtube.com/watch?v=1Y2VVpol…

It's #PlantOfTheWeek time from Ecology Park Nursery!
I am Common Yarrow.
I'm a native, perennial wildflower. I prefer full-sun to part-shade. I grow up to 2-3 ft tall. I have white flowers that bloom from June-Sept + fern-like foliage.

Shoutout to Grade 1's at Keith Wightman for Landmark 15. "We have been working on animal life cycles for our Grade 2 science curriculum. We took our butterflies outside and released them. Some of the butterflies flew off right away, some stuck around for the students to hold." 🙌
🎉Congrats to Peterborough Child & Family Centres who launched their Outdoor Playspace on Antrim Street. The project was funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation & 100+ donors including the Pathway Project. It's a creative space that will be enjoyed children for years to come!
