About the Hike

Join us at Twin Forks for a garden tour of the wonderful Twin Forks Community Garden.  Then we will walk along the Junction Creek trail to meet some native plants, and learn a little a bit about our Treaty.  A walk from the creek along the road will take us to the Place Hurtubise Pollinator and Edible Forest Garden & Community Garden, where we will discover the garden & learn a bit about it, and have the chance to add a few plants to the Edible Forest Garden.  We will then make our way back to Twin Forks along neighbourhood streets.
