The Friends of the Saskatoon Afforestation Areas Inc. has formed to help preserve them asgreenspaces, as they are loved, appreciated and enjoyed by so many members of the public, indeed, all year long. This area of Saskatoon is coming into some dynamic changes under the long range planning schemata to meet the target of 500,000 residents for Saskatoon by 2025. In fact, in the next 3-8 years, there will be 70,000 new Saskatoon residents residing in seven new neighborhoods adjacent to the afforestation areas.

We host tours, webinars, plan and faciliate educational events, share the rich heritage of the afforestation areas, engage in environmental restoration initiatives, advocate for nature-based solutions for climate-action, take action on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, encourage environmental guardianship, and work with groups of citizens to assemble an inventory of the natural flora and fauna by connecting with nature through the smart phone app iNaturalist.
