About the walk:
2 hour (2 km) tour starting from and ending at Riverview Alternative School, 260 Knox Crescent. We will be visiting a home with a ground source heat pump, then walking to a pollinator garden. The final visit is to a home with solar panels. We will be talking to the homeowners and gardener who will share their knowledge and experience in hopes of inspiring others to embrace more sustainable practices. Questions will be welcome.
