**Please note the only way to register for this adventure is on [our website.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/intro-foraging)** **Knowing how to safely and sustainably forage is one of the oldest skills there is, and one that's been largely lost in modern life.** This one-day workshop will reconnect you with the wild plants growing all around us. You'll learn how to spot, identify and confidently harvest a range of common edibles, alongside developing the kind of attentive eye that turns every walk in the woods into something richer. You will learn: * How to identify Ontario's most common wild edibles by their leaves, flowers, roots and seasonal cycles * How to tell edible plants apart from their toxic lookalikes * Where to look for different types of edibles * The principles of ethical and sustainable foraging **Who It's For:** Anyone curious about the food growing right under our feet. No prior foraging experience required. For those with some background, this is a great chance to fill in gaps and build confidence with new species. **About this series:** The Survivalist Series is an expert-led set of courses designed to develop applicable and life-saving skills in the outdoors. Keep your eyes peeled for more courses on many other topics as they become available. ***NB: Foraging comes with its own set of risks. For the purposes of this class, we do not condone the consumption of any wild edibles.*** **Highlights** **Expert Instruction –** Our amazing expert guide will teach you everything you need to know in a safe and approachable way. **Wild Edibles Library –** Build a working knowledge of the most common wild plants in our region, along with the lookalikes you'll want to avoid. **Sustainable Harvesting –** Learn the rules of ethical foraging so you can take only what you need without harming the ecosystems you're walking through. **Event cost: $80+HST (for explorer members) - $40 optional transport available.** **Register [here.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/intro-foraging)** **About Wilderness Union** Wilderness Union is deliberate about building an outdoors community that connects you to the life-changing magic of the outdoors and helps you find your people. Members range from 20-40 years old. The group is a mix of GTA locals and newcomers to Toronto from within Canada and abroad. Attendance numbers on Meetup don't reflect our actual event attendance - we typically have 15-20 community members at each event. Large enough that there's someone new to meet but small enough that it's not overwhelming! ***Learn more at our website [www.wildernessunion.com](https://www.wildernessunion.com/)***

5K every week till the snows come down! Or try to! We'll meet by the track. I'll be there early to warm up. We will start the 5K exactly at 9:30am. As mentioned in the About Us, * Using the park track we can all go at our own pace and never really be left behind unless we all finish way ahead of you. :D I think an hour is enough time to dedicate to the run. I'm pretty slow, so you will likely have me around for most of the hour. * Members are free to leave the run whenever they want. * Bring your kids, your pets, your partners, etc. * All encouraged to stick around afterwards and enjoy the park or neighbourhood on your own. * Let's get stronger, healthier and foster a great community at the same time. We also welcome runners who are not in our neighbourhood and want to join us spiritually and run from their own neighbourhoods. :-) Imagine how much healthier and communal the world would be if we all stopped for an hour once in a while to run together; re-centring and re-charging together?

**Volleyball Foundations 3 — Connect Your Skills & Play with Confidence (15+)** Ready to move beyond isolated skills and start playing with flow and purpose?

🌿🌊 TOMMY THOMPSON PARK WALK & LIGHTHOUSE ADVENTURE 🌊🌿 Wildlife, Skyline Views & One of Toronto’s Most Unique Nature Escapes If you’ve never been to Tommy Thompson Park before, it honestly doesn’t feel like Toronto. Stretching out into Lake Ontario, Tommy Thompson Park is one of the city’s best places to experience nature, open space, and some surprisingly stunning skyline views. Known for birdwatching, wildlife, and peaceful trails, the park is home to over 300 species of birds and has become one of Toronto’s most important urban nature areas. And somehow… even with the city skyline right beside you, it can feel incredibly quiet out there. This is a longer social walk focused on nature, conversation, and exploring some of the park’s hidden corners together. 📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd) \*\*\* 🚶‍♂️ What We’ll Do We’ll begin our walk near the pavilion and make our way through both the main trails and some of the quieter side paths throughout the park. We’ll: 🌿 Explore some off-road nature trails 🌊 Walk along the waterfront 📸 Stop for skyline and lake views 🕊️ Keep an eye out for birds and wildlife 🚨 Head all the way to the lighthouse for a break Afterward, we’ll make our way back through the park together. And for anyone who wants to keep socializing after the walk, we’ll head over to Wendy’s and Tim Hortons nearby for food, drinks, and conversation. ☕🍔 Sometimes the chats after the walk become the best part of the day. \*\*\* ⚠️ Walk Expectations Please note: This is a LONG walk. The full walk will take approximately: ⏰ 3+ hours including breaks You should be comfortable: ✔️ Walking at a steady pace ✔️ Being active for several hours ✔️ Walking on gravel, uneven paths, and nature trails If you are not currently able to walk long distances comfortably, this may not be the best event for you. 🚫 **Also important:** NO DOGS are allowed in the park (park rules, not ours!) \*\*\* 🌦️ Weather & Conditions This event happens rain or shine. Please come prepared for: ☀️ Full sun exposure 💨 Wind near the lake 🌿 Dusty or uneven trails 🥵 Warmer temperatures depending on the weather \*\*\* 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 Meetup Location: Beside the pavilion/washrooms near the park entrance 🫎 I’ll be wearing my Moose Hat ⏰ Meetup Time: 11:00 AM I will only wait 5 minutes. Early is on time. On time is late. \*\*\* 🎟️ Meetup Fee: $5 cash in person or e-transfer to 📧 \*\*[mathewmaclean@hotmail.com**](http://mathewmaclean@hotmail.com%2A%2A/) This fee helps support the group and allows us to continue organizing events like this.

Some trained COUNT volunteers work together once a month at RMH (http://www.rmhc-centralohio.org/volunteer.php) as Housewarmers (usually on the 1st Sunday from 1 – 5 PM). Some schedule other shifts at their convenience. You may try this out with less fuss by following a "Fast track" or go through the normal process. Fast track • Arrange a time to shadow a COUNT volunteer. Call Dave Nohle at 614-268-9558 (cell). • Show up and try it out. • Complete application, etc. later. Normal process • Complete an online application (http://rmhc-centralohio.org/volunteer/). • Attend orientation in advance. • At orientation you will complete forms agreeing to keep family/patient info private and allowing a background check and tour the facility. • Complete one training shift. Daily shifts are: morning 9 AM - 1 PM, afternoon 1 - 5 PM and evening 5 - 9 PM. • Schedule shifts online using the on the RMH scheduling system (http://www.volgistics.com/ex/portal.dll/?FROM=32895). The Ronald McDonald House (RMH) provides housing and meals for families with sick children. The Columbus RMH is the largest in the world with 137 rooms. COUNT has been volunteering there since May 2014. Housewarmers work with RMH guests to provide a home-like environment - greet, assist with family needs, answer phones, give tours, assist with checkin/checkout, prepare guest rooms after checkout, clean facility, laundry, restock supplies and staff the front desk. RMH Housewarmers volunteer at least one four-hour shift a month. All Housewarmers must complete an application and agree to a background check before they can be full fledged volunteers.
