Mr. Woodcock's talented gr 12 FHS music class joined us at Marysville Flats this week! We talked climate change and floodplain restoration. We're excited to hear what they create from their Nashwaak River trip. Kudos to the NB Dept of Ed for supporting this awesome experience! https://t.co/6nGyCy7XBP

A big thanks to everyone involved! On Tuesday a grateful Leo Hayes Envirothon Club received a Scott's Nursery gift card for their new pollinator garden project. The funds were raised at the recent Pollinator Gardening Workshop we hosted in partnership with Scott's and Nature NB. ![]()
The group is so pleased with the donation and enthusiastically shared with us their many plans for a thriving native pollinator garden at the school. The space will benefit students and wildlife alike, incorporating native edibles and beautiful flowering plants to support local pollinators. These students are intelligent, considerate and inspiring and we can't wait to help out with the garden when they begin breaking ground. We foresee many fun collaborations in our future, stay tuned ! ##pollinatorgarden #youngleaders #community #MyNashwaak

Over the past few weeks, the NWAI has been gathering ice monitoring data for GNB’s River Watch Program. Since the first week of March, we have been monitoring conditions on the Nashwaak River twice weekly at 9 sites. This week, conditions varied along the river, with downstream sites remaining almost completely frozen over, while sites further upstream were around 90% open. Pictured above are our Stanley, Taymouth and Barker’s Point sites. ![]()

As river ice continues to break-up, keep your eye on the helpful resources provided by GNB’s River Watch program and NB Emergency Measures Organization (NBEMO). ![]()
