October 25 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Free

The Quinte Field Naturalists (QFN) and Rotary, in partnership with Tree Canada, Belleville Home Building Centre & Bayview Home Hardware, is planning a 2 day fall planting event at Clifford Sonny Belch Park. The public planting events are scheduled for Friday October 25 and Saturday October 26, 9am to Noon. Volunteers are encouraged to attend.

With generous help from Picture Perfect Landscaping Quinte Ltd., organizers aim to plant over 200 trees and shrubs in the park.

The goal of the fall planting event at Clifford Sonny Belch Park is to soften recreational areas and to connect existing evergreen corridors. The area is already known to support a number of wildlife species and QFN considers this event an opportunity to improve habitat and food sources for area birds and wildlife.

Planting volunteers are encouraged to sign up by contacting [email protected].

The Quinte Field Naturalists is an incorporated non-profit organization affiliated with Ontario Nature. Anyone interested in nature and wildlife is encouraged to join.

The Rotary Club of Belleville was founded in 1920 and is an integral part of our local community and connected to more than 1.4 million dedicated and proud Rotarians.

The Bay of Quinte RMB Land Acknowledgement

The Bay of Quinte Regional Marketing Board is committed to acknowledging, appreciating and understanding the Indigenous peoples’ historic connection to this land and to raising awareness by building relationships in collaboration with Indigenous partners and communities. 

We recognize and acknowledge that we are living and working on the traditional territory of the Wendat, Mississauga, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee which includes the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka (Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte) with whom we work in direct partnership with. 

This partnership focuses on the common goal of celebrating the region with the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka who are equal partners within the organization and at the Board of Directors table contributing to the mandate and operations.

This mandate includes listening to, learning from, and collaborating with the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka and actively incorporating their culture and heritage into the practice of responsible destination marketing and management of the region.

We understand that this land acknowledgement is only a small step towards the larger process of reparations and reconciliation.
