Abegweit Conservation Society

Published purpose

This contribution supports community engagement, planning and implementation of three “sister” trails. This project will gather existing Indigenous Traditional Knowledge (ITK) related to climate change, culturally significant plant species and species at risk which will be collected and utilized in planning site locations, conducting inventories, identifying the plant species to be planted and developing educational messages. Following engagement sessions, trail locations will be selected in Scotchfort (Abegweit First Nation), Lennox Island (Lennox Island First Nation) and Prince Edward Island National Park and work can begin to clear new trails or adapt existing trails as required.
