Everyone is invited to join the Riverview Horticultural Centre Society (RHCS) on Sunday May 25 from 1 - 3 pm for a free guided Tree Walk on the səmiq̓ʷəʔelə/Riverview Lands.
Come see some of the spectacular flowering trees currently blooming at the Riverview Arboretum.

Signs will be posted throughout the site to direct you to the rendezvous location.
Please visit www.rhcs.org for more information.
Our Tour Leader will be;
Julia Alards-Tomalin, an instructor in the Renewable Resources department at the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT). She is currently the Program Head for the Forest and Natural Areas Management program. She studied Forestry and Ecological Restoration at BCIT and completed a Master of Education at Simon Fraser University. Her background is diverse, including horticulture, arboriculture, urban forestry and ecological restoration, but is united by a common theme of plants. Julia also co-runs an ecological restoration business, Echo Ecological, which focuses on invasive plant removal and the re-establishment of native plants in urban estuaries and riparian areas. She uses her plant identification skills to help identify and restore degraded urban wetlands across the Lower Mainland Fraser Valley area. Her interest in plants has been a life-long endeavour and has inspired her to co-create a Youtube Channel: Interviews with Plants, and an award winning winter plant identification textbook: Buds, Branches and Bark: A Guide to Winter ID in the Pacific Northwest.
