Jane’s Walk – Save Lemoine Point Farm, Fields & Forest

The Save Lemoine Point Farm group is hosting a Jane’s Walk on Saturday May 3, 2025 at 2:00PM.

Jane’s Walk is an annual festival of free, community-led walking conversations inspired by Jane Jacobs.  Jane’s Walks encourage people to share stories about their neighbourhoods, discover unseen aspects of their communities, and use walking as a way to connect with their neighbours.

Walk Description: A tour of the “assisted migration forest,” a climate change research project, led by forester Rick Knapton; an update on the future of Lemoine Point Farm from the Save Lemoine Point Farm group; and news from the Friends of Lemoine Point.

Terrain: flat with uneven ground
Distance: less than 1 km
Duration: one hour fifteen minutes
Meeting Place: Lemoine Point Conservation Area, South Parking Lot – Front Road entrance.  A map showing the meeting place is here.
Tour Leaders & Organizers: Save Lemoine Point Farm group  https://savelemoinepointfarm.org/
