Nature Vancouver volunteers spent this past weekend exhibiting at the 2026 Richmond Garlic Festival, hosted by the Sharing Farm. The event brought together a variety of exhibitors, including local artisan businesses, environmental organisations, and community service providers. The festival also featured farm-fresh food, farm tours, a raptor demonstration by Island Raptors, musical performances by School of Rock, and lots of garlic!

Nature Vancouver will be at Wings Over Iona on September 12, 2026 from 11am – 2pm. Volunteers are needed to help with public engagement, booth set-up, and take-down. If you enjoy being out in the community and sharing your passion for nature, you are welcome to join us! Please contact communications@naturevancouver.ca and laura@naturevancouver.ca if you are interested in volunteering.
