‘The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.’
Oscar Wilde
On Tuesday August 26, the One Tree Orchard project team including new distinguished partners went for a walking tour of the project site (A.K.A. my backyard). I am absolutely thrilled and grateful to these new partners. This project has recently received sponsorship as well as partnership from many new and exciting agencies. It is so thrilling to now be able to announce that our list of partners now includes:
- The Department of the Environment
- The Department of Health
- The Rural District Planning Commission
- The Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation
- The Association of Municipal Administrators of New Brunswick
- The Conservation Council of New Brunswick
- The Environment and Sustainable Development Research Centre (UNB)
- The Department of Forestry (UNB)
- Efficiency New Brunswick
The list seems to be growing daily! It can’t express through words how absolutely fantastic it is to work with these individuals and organizations. All of whom have brought a great deal of time and expertise to this project.
So, off we went an a fabulous walkabout!
As we leave my driveway to go explore the project site Vince Zelazny, our forestry and biology expert explains some of the natural features of the project site.
Up beside the old pine farm, Marcelle Thibodeau (RDPC), Miles Dibble (UNB), Tom Beckley (FEM UNB), Alex Murdoch (DOH), Daniel Savard (ENV), Vince and I walk and discuss some exciting possibilities.
Down at the MacIntosh Brook, it looks like the beavers have been hard at work.
Thank you to all who came out to the first of many walkabouts of the One Tree Orchard Sustainable Community project site!
