The Heritage Hills Parkette was revitalized as part of the West Bolton SNAP project.
Approximately 100 square metres of underutilized asphalt was removed, transforming the area into a vibrant growing space for native plants.
A total of 625 plants, including trees, shrubs, and wildflowers were installed across the parkette, improving stormwater absorption, supporting pollinators, and beautifying the local neighbourhood.
This is the first completed node of the West Bolton SNAP Action Plan and is part of the planned Memory Lane walk. Memory Lane walk is characterized as a passive walk that places emphasis on intergeneration interactions and nature interpretation.
This project is a collaboration between Ecosource, the Town of Caledon and Toronto and Region Conservation Authority’s (TRCA) Sustainable Neighbourhood Action Program (SNAP), additionally funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation.
Thank you to our garden steward volunteers (pictured above) for assisting in the planting and helping maintain the new wildflower gardens until they can establish.
If you would like to join the garden steward volunteers please email Justyna Braithwaite at justyna.braithwaite@trca.ca.
You can improve stormwater management and support pollinators at home, too! Find ideas, tips, and programs to help.
