During the 2021/2022 season, seven grantees collectively restored over 160 hectares of wetlands, grasslands, shorelines, agricultural areas and former industrial sites
From the salt marshes of the Wolastoq/Saint John River valley, NB, to the shores of Vancouver Island, BC, to the farmlands of Quebec and Ontario, around 4,000 people planted nearly 90,000 trees and shrubs, which will sequester carbon as they grow and benefit more than 70 populations of species at-risk.
These projects also made communities more resilient to the impacts of climate change, such as flooding, directly benefitting over 100,000 people.
