Guest speakers will discuss sustainability with a local focus.
Fire & Hooves: Restoring & Enhancing Saskatchewan’s Prairies for Ecological Health & Biodiversity
Renny Grilz will discuss how managed grazing and prescribed fires enhance the health of Saskatchewan’s prairies, with a focus on the Meewasin Valley. These practices promote native plant diversity, reduce invasive species and improve wildlife habitats. By mimicking natural processes, fire and grazing help keep grasslands resilient, supporting the unique biodiversity of the Meewasin Valley and Saskatchewan’s prairies for future generations.
The Sustainability Speakers Series is a monthly event hosted by Saskatchewan Environmental Society volunteers and the Saskatoon Public Library. This is an in-person event. Recordings of some presentations will be made available on SPL's YouTube channel.
