A chance to connect with experts, do some birdwatching and revel in Sandy Hill’s amazing natural resources and setting
The 2nd Sandy Hill EcoFair held on Saturday, June 1 in Strathcona Park was another success. Our thanks go to Mother Nature who provided stunning weather and the industrious and well-connected volunteers on Action Sandy Hill’s Environment Committee.
The EcoFair opened with greetings by Elder Irene Compton.
