Dear David:
I do remember a field trip I took with my class to the Devonian Gardens as well as on my 11th birthday when I went with my friends to the E.L. Smith Water Treatment Plant. As part of the High School Forestry & Agriculture component courses, real field trips and virtual field trips online should be made to different forest types in Alberta. Ie: The Boreal Forest, etc.
This will encourage not only forest conservation, but organic growing of fruits and vegetables. As well as a keen interest in forest renewal & safe growing & eating practices with less preservatives by the students. Lets build up our forests & farmfields from the ground up, sparking an interest in kids in becoming the farmers, ranch hands and park rangers, conservation ecologists of the future.
Regards,
Rory
