SUMMARY:Riparian Restoration Webinar
DESCRIPTION:After a successful workshop in Didsbury\, this past May\, we’re excited to keep the momentum going and provide tools for riparian restoration.\n\n\n\nRiparian areas—where land meets water—are some of the most vibrant parts of the landscape. These zones thrive because nearby water supports a rich mix of trees\, shrubs\, and wildlife. But when vegetation is lost\, waterways can deteriorate\, dry out\, and become difficult to restore. That’s where we can help. \nJoin us on December 10\, 2025\, at 7:00 p.m. for a webinar led by our Agroforestry Specialist\, Winston Gamache. He will walk through a range of planting strategies for riparian and wetland restoration\, with a focus on erosion control and live staking. The session will conclude with an overview of potential funding opportunities for these types of projects\, followed by a Q&A period to explore your riparian planting questions in more depth.

SUMMARY:Pruning Woody Plants
DESCRIPTION:Pruning is the intentional removal of dead or overgrown stems and branches\, which increases a plant’s overall health and productivity. We want to ensure that landowners are equipped with the best skillsets for pruning\, since trees and shrubs are an essential part of agroforestry\, and their development can take several years to decades to establish. With the spring rapidly approaching\, your plants may be in need of a trim after their winter slumber. \nOn March 13\, 2025\, at 7:00pm\, join our Agroforestry Specialist\, Winston Gamache\, as he walks you through the best times of the year to prune\, the techniques used to ‘trim’ your plants and to answer any remaining questions you may have. Additional information will be provided on how AWES can use the 2 Billion Tree Program to help fund and implement planting projects on your land! \nAccess to the webinar will be provided upon the completion of your registration. Please plan to enter 5-10 minutes before the webinar starts\, in case you experience technical difficulties. \nThe webinar will consist of 60-90 minutes of instructional content\, followed by a question period with the event ending at 9:00pm. \nRegister here: Eventbrite

SUMMARY:Planting Native Trees And Shrubs
DESCRIPTION:It’s that time of year…Spring is coming! As a landowner\, have you ever selected a variety of plant species\, gone through the laborious task of planting them\, watering\, weeding and other general maintenance to ensure their survival? However\, despite your best efforts\, your newly planted seedlings mostly die… So\, what exactly happened? It could be a number of contributing factors such as improper plant species selected for the growing region or it could be due to environmental pressures such as competition from other vegetative species or browse pressure from wildlife. On February 19th\, 2025\, at 7:00PM\, tune into the Land Stewardship Center’s live\, online workshop “Planting Native Trees and Shrubs\,” where our Program Director\, Tomas Sokolon\, is providing direction on how to pick the right species for your land and some common errors to avoid during the planting period.\n\n\nYou will be able to access this online workshop through the link provided to you upon registration. Please plan to enter 5-10 minutes before the workshop starts\, in case you encounter technical difficulties.\nSee link below.

SUMMARY:Agroforestry Basics & Cultivation Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Agroforestry can be an effective method to revitalize the soil and improve land productivity\, when your land has become worn down due to repeated exposure to rotational crops or livestock. Agroforestry is a land management practice that integrates trees\, shrubs and other perennial plants with agricultural or livestock systems\, thereby offering numerous environmental and economic benefits. Agroforestry approaches ecosystem health with a holistic viewpoint compared to that of the traditional crop-centric practices. The various types of agroforestry techniques can help improve soil health and water management\, provide erosion control and create microclimate regulation\, as well as increase biodiversity and economic diversification. Join our Agroforestry Specialist\, Winston Gamache\, and Technician\, Teresa Kozakewich\, who will present on the basics and cultivation of agroforestry\, and take questions on January 7\, 2025\, at 7:00pm. Additional information will be provided on how AWES can use the 2 Billion Tree Program to help fund and implement planting projects on your land! \nAccess to the webinar will be provided by link\, upon the completion of your registration. Please plan to enter 5-10 minutes before the webinar starts\, in case you experience technical difficulties. \nThe webinar will consist of 60 to 90 minute instructional content\, followed by a question period with the event ending at 9:00pm.

DESCRIPTION:Summary: Can trees save your property? Shelterbelts may be the answer to your property’s woes. \nAbout this Event: \nShelterbelts are commonly used in agricultural and rural areas to improve land productivity and environmental conditions. A well-planned shelterbelt showcases several rows\, or groupings of trees and shrubs of various growth heights\, planted to protect an area from strong winds\, thereby reducing soil erosion\, providing shelter for crops\, livestock\, and buildings\, as well as reducing snowdrifts on roads. Join AWES and Shelterbelt Specialist\, Blair English\, as we unpack the logistics of implementing this type of natural feature on your land.  Additionally\, learn how the Agroforestry & Woodlot Extension Society can help fund and implement this type of planting project with you! \n  \nYou will be able to access this webinar through the link provided to you upon registration. Please plan to enter 5-10 minutes before the webinar starts\, in case you encounter technical difficulties. \nThe webinar will consist of a 60 to 90-minute instructional portion\, followed by a question period with event ending at 9:00pm.
