The province has declared the last week of May a permanent Arbor Week and Saskatoon is pulling out all the stops to mark the occasion
Friday, May 7, 7 p.m.: Remai Modern Art Gallery Film Night. “What Trees Talk About,” directed by Ryszard Hunka, deals with the secret, dynamic life of trees in our boreal forests — how they communicate, wage war and work together to transform their world and ours. Check the Remai website for COVID protocols.
Saturday, May 28, 9 a.m. to noon: Arbour Crest Tree Pruning Workshop. This hands-on pruning workshop, instructed by local arborist Robin Adair, takes place at the Varsity View Community Garden . It covers the what, when, why and how of pruning and tool care. Bring your own pruning tools, gloves and safety glasses. Registration is limited .
Sunday, May 29, 1 p.m.: Community Tree Planting of a Food Forest. SOS Trees has partnered with the Sunnyside Care Home, the City of Saskatoon and the Saskatoon Nature Society to plant fruit trees in the care home’s garden, 2200 St. Henry Ave. This initiative will connect vulnerable populations with access to nutritious food, improving food security in a sustainable manner. It also encourages bird populations. Please bring your own tools.
In celebration of Arbor Week, plant trees — with your family, neighbours, school, club or community organization — and breathe in that sense of satisfaction, nurturing and hope for the future of our urban forests.
