Trees are not just outdoor furniture for us to use.  If we learn to respect and care for trees then they can help us and the global environment in countless ways. \nProfessor Pricklethorn wants to help teachers\, parents\, and children learn how to make the connection between science and everyday life by learning about the many good things that trees do for us every single day.\n\n\n11:45AM\nPete Moss\nConnect with local nature through songs\, stories and movement with children’s performer Pete Moss. Children\, families and caregivers will actively participate in songs and stories about local plants\, birds\, wildlife and weather. Celebrate nature in our communities through learning bird calls\, how to identify common plants and animal tracks and moving like local creatures through song. Pete will actively engage audiences in songs from his album’s Birds Rock and Plants Rock and participatory stories inspired by nearby nature.\n\n\n1:00PM\nGUFF Henry Kock Tree Stewardship Award\n\n\n\n1:30PM\nElderly Brothers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTours and Demonstrations\n(departure time from the West Lawn)\n\n\n\n\n\n10:30AM\nKids Hikes\nChris Earley\n\n\n11:00AM\nHoneybee Research Centre Tour\nShannon Lam\n\n\n11:30AM\nGuelph Trial Gardens Tour\nJoe Langlois\n\n\n12:00PM\nGuelph Urban Organic Farm Tour\nChris Earley\n\n\n12:00PM\nTree Climbing Demonstration\nMike Yost and Kellen Wood\n\n\n12:30PM\nTree Hike\nChrista Wise\n\n\n1:00PM\nTree Music Walk Wallace and Horvat\nSharlene Wallace and Frank Horvat\n\n\n1:30PM\nGall Hike\nJoe Langlois\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\nAll Day Booths and Activities (10am to 3pm) in the Arboretum Centre / West Lawn\n\n\n\n\n\nPlant Sale\nThe Arboretum\n\n\nNaturalists Table\nThe Arboretum\n\n\nHoney Bee Education & Honey Sales\nHoneybee Research Center\n\n\nInformation Table\nGUFF\n\n\nInformation Table\nSpeed River Project\n\n\nInformation Table\nTree Trust\n\n\nInformation Table\nOPIRG Guelph\n\n\nInformation Table\nPollination Guelph\n\n\nGuelph Public Library Book Mobile\nGuelph Public Library\n\n\nInformation Table\nReep Green Solutions\n\n\nInformation Table\nTrees for Guelph\n\n\nOrganic Veggies & Information Table\nGuelph Centre for Urban Organic Farming\n\n\nSustainable Water & Healthy Landscapes\nCity of Guelph\n\n\nInformation Table\nFocus on Nature\n\n\nInformation Table\nWildlife Preservation Canada\n\n\nInformation Table\nNokom’s House\n\n\nInformation Table\nGuelph National Urban Park Project\n\n\nInformation Table\nNature Guelph\n\n\nSound Installations Trees.Listen\nWallace and Horvat\n\n\n\n\n\nConcession stands:\nLaza Food Truck\n\n\n\n
