The Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF) will celebrate National Wildlife Week April 4-11 by planting seeds of hope and opportunity.

As the warmer days of spring arrive, we look forward to welcoming our migrating wildlife home from their winter destinations.

We all can pledge to do more for wildlife by supporting conservation efforts, big and small.

CWF is providing a range of opportunities for the public to get involved and will distribute seed packets to participants as supplies last.

- Signing up for a free iNaturalist webinar and joining CWF’s Observation Nation

- Registering for the CWF Gardening for Wildlife introductory online course

CWF thanks all those springing into action for wildlife.

It has been a very challenging year but getting outside and enjoying nature is critical.
