🔥 TWO FIRES. ONE QUESTION. WHAT WILL WE DO BEFORE THE NEXT SPARK?

A single cigarette.

A gust of prairie wind.

A few seconds.

That's all it can take to change a forest forever.

This spring, two fires impacted Saskatoon's afforestation areas, reminding us that our urban forests are more than parks—they are wildlife habitat, carbon stores, outdoor classrooms, and living legacies planted for future generations.

🌳 What happens when a forest burns?

🦉 What happens to the birds, pollinators, and wildlife that call it home?

🚒 Why are spring fires so dangerous on the Prairies?

❤️ And what can each of us do to help prevent the next one?
