Long evenings. Calm water. Better paddling.

Join us this week for a special sunset kayak lesson designed for novice paddlers looking to improve their strokes and build confidence on the water.

We’ll work on efficient forward paddling, turning, boat control, and techniques that make every paddle stroke count. Then we’ll enjoy a beautiful summer solstice evening from the best seat in the house, your kayak.

Perfect for newer paddlers who want to feel more comfortable, capable, and efficient on the water.

Have you spotted these giant leaves before?

These are Petasites, one of our favourite plants at Filberg Park and one of the most frequently asked-about plants in the gardens. Located between the Lodge and the Japanese Garden, its enormous lily pad-shaped leaves can reach up to 4 feet across during the growing season, creating a dramatic display that visitors love to photograph.

Be sure to stop by and see this impressive plant on your next visit! 💚

Women of the Fur Trade
By Frances Koncan

In eighteen hundred and something something, somewhere upon the banks of a Reddish River in Treaty One Territory, three very different women with a preference for twenty-first century slang sit in a fort sharing their views on life, love, and the hot nerd Louis Riel.

Marie-Angelique, a Metis Ta**us, is determined to woo Louis (a Metis Libra) - who will be arriving soon - by sending him boldly flirtatious letters. Eugenia, an Ojibwe Sagittarius, brings news of rebellion back to the fort after trading, but isn’t impressed by Louis’s true mediocre nature. And Cecilia, a pregnant British Virgo, is anxiously waiting on her husband’s return from an expedition, but can’t resist pining over the heartthrob Thomas Scott (Irish Capricorn), who is actually the one secretly responding to Marie-Angelique’s letters. This will all go smoothly, right?
