About this Event

Join us for another planting session at Nootka & 14th! We will plant & learn about local plant species.

This portion of Still Creek, which was daylit in 2011, is an ongoing stewardship area for Still Moon Arts. We removed lots of English Ivy and Himalayan blackberry to create space for more local plants that support biodiversity.

Still Moon will provide gloves, tools, and light snacks for the day—just bring yourself!

  • Date: Saturday, November 8, 2025
  • Time: 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM
  • Location: Meet at the corner of Nootka St. and E. 14th Ave. ()
  • If you arrive late, follow the path along the southern fence into the forest and you should see us ()

Accessibility

  • This site is accessed by a narrow, overgrown path; and we will be working in an area with very uneven terrain - some work arears may be accessed via the path. The site is also moderately sloped. This event is not recommended for folks with mobility issues. Check out our events at Renfrew Community, Renfrew Ravine Park, or Cornett Road for events that are more accessible. If you need help getting to the site or have other questions about accessibility, please email [email protected].


Getting There

  • Nookta & 14th is a 10-minute walk from Renfrew Skytrain Station. Limited street parking is available.
  • Washrooms are not available on site. The nearest washrooms are a 5-minute walk away at the Chevron station.
