Learn about the projects that we’re
building in Niagara and supporting around the region.
We steward almost 4 acres of land on our corner in Niagara. About half of that is prairie and grassland. We’ve partnered with local beekeepers BY’s Honey Farm to use our property to house eight of their hives (and approximately 500,000 bees!) to our region.
Project Share coordinates 160 garden plots at 3 community sites in Niagara - and we’re currently exploring adding a fourth on our property! The community gardens provide thousands of pounds of fresh fruits and vegetables to the Project Share food bank shelves.
In collaboration with the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority and the Canadian Wildlife Federation, we’re in the early stages of exploring how to transform a large portion of the vacant grassland on our property into a restorative Monarch Meadow. Monarch Butterflies are close to becoming an endangered species, so planting native pollinators in this area will give these delicate species safe refuge, while also complimenting the environment for our bees!
