Looking to beg, borrow or steal (or rent) the expander tool for 1" diameter PEXa aka Propex, Wirsbo.... This is a different system than the more common crimp tool / fittings.

Thanks everyone for bringing your used egg cartons back to the farm each

short for this week. If you have a stack you'd like to drop off, we'll
gladly accept.

Cool Girls Nature Club

Hello brave women,

Since we’ve had hundreds of new cold-water “guests” visiting our usual swim spots lately (very large, very vocal ones 😄), we’re changing things up a little.

We’ll meet at the boat launch Saturday morning at 9:00 a.m. and walk to a quieter beach nearby. 

Fun fact: Like sea lions, we’re not meant to do this alone, dipping together helps our nervous systems calm and connect.

This is a women’s low-pressure gathering, a relaxed, supportive space to just be as you are. Come sit on the beach, sip your tea, and simple be, or dip, swim, paddle, wetsuit, bathing suit, or birthday suit, all welcome.

Come exactly as you are.

A little ocean time, a little connection, a little courage, that’s all this is.

And honestly… why not jump in? 

Warmly,

Elite

Community Invasive Plant Drop-Off (Sat, March 28)

Like last year, community members are welcome to drop off their invasive plants at the Fairyslipper Forest parking lot. Chipping is the safest and most effective way to manage invasive plants - please don’t burn or leave plants on-site, as burning can release toxic gases and many plants will resprout if left.

Drop-off date: Saturday, March 28
Drop-off time: 9:00 - 11:00 AM
Chipping time: 1:00 PM

Suggested donation: $80 per long-box pickup truck load.

Please note: Do not bring materials with seeds or berries, as these can spread new invasive plants.

To help us estimate quantities, please let us know if you plan to participate by emailing info@thetisislandnatureconservancy.org.

If you aren’t able to drop off your materials, you can arrange a pickup directly with David Reay at davidreay@telus.net

Thank you for helping protect our island habitats!

Tide Tables in the Q

Please note there is an error in the March listings for the tides as shown on the quarterly report.

The days for March only as listed are 1 day behind the actual day. Not sure how this relates to the actual tide heights.

Missing Orange Cat? Dingley Dell Community Trail

For the last week or so we've seen a large orange cat hanging around the rock areas where the trail intersects with the boardwalk valley crossing. It seems like it might be hiding out underneath some of the big rock overhangs regularly, as the dogs get pretty excited around the same spot everyday. Our dogs are on leash through this area but it crosses into the off leash spots close by, so we want to be sure the cat will be safe.

Is your cat missing, or maybe it's just a brave adventurous cat who lives nearby and likes to wander around here?

Thanks Elisabeth & Noah @ Jollity
