At the end of another impactful year of restoration work at the Courtenay Airpark, long-time project leader Frank Hovenden has provided his illustrated annual report which you can read and download here (PDF, 5.1 MB).
As usual, the dedicated project volunteers diligently attacked invasive species and planted appropriate native species, all while attending to previous plantings. Invasive rabbits continue to be an issue in the park, which explains the fencing you may see there protecting the plantings.
An extra task this year was replacing the aging signs that identify and describe the native species that are gradually increasing in the park. The new signs include the new logos of both Comox Valley Nature and the City of Courtenay. CVN has worked closely with City staff over the years to accomplish the goals of this project.
