About the event
The Smith Blackburn Homestead is a unique property located just east of Elk Island National Park, in a region recognized by UNESCO as the Beaverhills Biosphere Reserve. Home to many species of wildlife, there is also an established pollinator garden that is under pressure from invasive weeds. (ENPS was instrumental in the establishment of this pollinator garden.)
