Education News Canada shared NC’s news release on the Chautauqua Oaks Project in the Niagara-on-the-Lake’s Chautauqua neighbourhood in which NC students in the School of Environment and Horticulture participated. The resident-driven project saw NC students collect acorns for propagation to rejuvenate the urban forest. The acorns are  germinated and nurtured at the NOTL Campus to be used for future replanting projects.

The community event in Ryerson Park on October 1 was a shining example of experiential learning in which students learned about forest restoration and tree propagation first hand.
