Burnaby Stewardship

Help protect and restore Burnaby's beautiful parks! Volunteers are needed to remove invasive species and plant native trees. Events are free and open to families, youth, and all community members. Participants do not need to be City of Burnaby residents.

No experience is necessary. Events are led by experts at the Invasive Species Council of Metro Vancouver who will provide instruction, gloves, all the required tools, and refreshments.

Events are held regularly in Central Park. Events will also be held at Jim Lorimer Park (2338 Gilmore Avenue) and Deer Lake Park.

For more information, or register for any of these events, please contact info@iscmv.ca. Your registration will be confirmed. Close to the event date, all registered volunteers will receive a message with the exact meeting location and other important details.
