2020 Spring, Blue Skies, Swans Grazing, and a whole load of rain to nourish our Cherry Blossoms at High Park. As Covid-19 suffocates the world economy, it also facilitates the earth to heal and grow with reduced greenhouse emissions. The GTA’s surrounded with nature’s landscape with endless trail’s at the Oak Ridges Moraine, Expanding Don River Park, and the Water’s Edge City Trails are just to name a few. Toronto is home to over 2600 species of wild life, and with 65% less commuters on the road the warm April Showers will welcome a blossoming of ecological treasures thriving.
