tree planting at lakehead thunder bay

on may 29, 2024, 11 volunteers (staff, faculty, 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ) planted approximately 300 white spruce, white birch, and poplar trees on the thunder bay campus. this initiative was supported by ecosuperior, the office of sustainability, the thunder bay remedial action plan, and the lake superior living labs network.

the trees were donated by ecosuperior and the 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 greenhouse.

we took advantage of the forest space and planted seedlings to reduce fragmentation, and increase species diversity and the stages of succession growth. these trees will infiltrate blowdown areas and old forest to ensure a diverse forest into the future. seedlings planted in the climate action park will also take over existing lawn, helping to increase the riparian buffer and reduce mowing needs. this initiative is part of ongoing efforts to reduce stormwater runoff and restore habitat along the river.
