The Municipality is asking if anyone has an old unused canoe they would like to donate to a great cause. If this is you, then here is your opportunity! We are currently in the works of developing a unique activity for our community called “Plant a Canoe.” This initiative is a part of the “Butterflyway Project,” a volunteer-led movement that is growing habitats for bees and butterflies in communities across Canada. “Retired” canoes filled with soil, native wildflowers and shrubs add colour and feed local bees and butterflies.
Further to the "Plant A Canoe" part of the Butterflyway Project - St. Mary's would love to be able to create twelve Butterflyway habitats across St. Mary's District.
If you would like to donate, become involved or learn more about this exciting project, please reach out to Tobias at 902-522-2598 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
