Speaker Presentations

Ellen Schwartzel
Nature is not a frill for any rapidly growing 21st century city. Natural lands buffer our cities against flooding, heat, and air pollution. Natural landscapes can be both preserved and added into Toronto’s development, supporting our goals for climate change, biodiversity, and physical and mental health. This talk will illustrate how we can preserve, restore, and create more natural spaces, showcasing both successes like the Brickworks and the Meadoway, and creative new approaches that Toronto could be exploring.

Paul Zammit
Highlighting Toronto’s remarkable bird biodiversity; Toronto is not just a random spot on the landscape; the city has grown up on lands that have been key migratory corridors for birds for thousands of years. What an amazing opportunity it is to care for a garden. Never has the need to garden been more important than it is today. Join Paul as he draws on his 35 plus years of professional and personal experience in the industry and as a home gardener. Paul believes our actions have incredible consequences and promise, far beyond any property lines that might attempt to define a garden.
