Native tree, shrub, and plant species are under many different stresses: extreme temperatures and storms, invasive plants, insects, and pathogens, and certain human behaviours. Join OFNC President, Owen Clarkin and Friends of Hampton Park director, Sharon Boddy, for a ramble in the Hampton Park Woods to discuss the health of our native species, and how we may be able to respond to or prepare for some of the current and emerging threats.
