Getting to the Root of the Matter

Verna Mumby will lead us on this walk through Vanier Nature Park in Courtenay , where we will get to the ROOT of the matter and learn about roots. Discover the different root types, what they do, where they are and why! We will dig around some trees to examine the wonders of the way trees take in their food and water and grow in an upright position.
