Please join LEAF (Local Enhancement and Appreciation of Forests) on a tour of Casa Loma on Saturday, August 14.
Join LEAF's Lauren Brown on the grounds of the famous Casa Loma where you will learn the history of its evolving urban canopy and how to best preserve it. The tour will be led by guest expert Philip van Wassenaer, who has his Masters of Forest Conservation, runs his own urban forestry company, and has worked locally, nationally and internationally on assignments concerning urban forestry and the preservation of significant trees. Joining Philip is Bruce Scott, Casa Loma's head gardener for the past 20 years, who will expand on the heritage site's amazing grounds and gardens. The walking difficulty of this tour is medium: mixed pavement and grass, with some stairs and small hills on the route.
We will be meeting by the fountain in front of the castle at 10:00 am.
