the positive changes here.” The HNC is a 105-year-old, volunteer-led organization dedicated to the study, appreciation and conservation of Hamilton’s wild plants and animals. “One of our barriers is funding,” Killingbeck explained. “When we were able to work with the Green Cities Foundation (GCF), it was fantastic. We were able to bring the expertise, help with the onsite planting, get the volunteers together, while the Green Cities Foundation was able to provide us funding and logistical support for actually getting those trees.” Peter Guinane, a director with the GCF, helped plant a variety of native trees and shrubs supplied by Verbinnen’s Nursery. Guinane said that lending a hand at the Rolston Community Forest, located within Captain Cornelius Park in Hamilton, Ont., was an “energizing” experience. “It’ll make a nice community opportunity to interact with a natural environment. The Green Cities Foundation loves getting involved in these sorts of projects,” Guinane said, also noting the foundation has been involved in more than 20 projects across Canada in 2024 alone. “This movement is multiplying and it’s great that Green Cities has the resources to help facilitate all these projects. There’s a lot of momentum in what’s happening here.”
