Ecosystem<br />

restoration<br />

From planting trees to restoring wetlands,<br />

<strong>NCC</strong>’s Conservation Volunteers make the<br />

work of ecosystem restoration a reality<br />

Here at the Nature Conservancy of Canada (<strong>NCC</strong>),<br />

conservation is for the long term, and acquiring<br />

important natural areas is only the beginning of our<br />

work. Our team of skilled conservation scientists develops<br />

management plans that outline how best to care for every<br />

property that we own. Sometimes these properties need<br />

a little extra care — an ecosystem might be degraded from<br />

previous use, for example. When this happens, we turn to<br />

restoration as a tool to try and get these habitats back into<br />

the best shape they can be.<br />

Restoration projects take on many shapes and sizes<br />

across the country, from planting trees to creating wetlands.<br />

However, one thing is for sure: we couldn’t do this work<br />

without the help of our Conservation Volunteers!<br />
