Happy Belated World Frog Day to all our frog friends who make the Sackville River watershed their home.


Guess we should have hopped to it and posted this sooner!


Ribbiting frog facts!

  • As tadpoles, frogs consume algae helping to keep water clear and clean.

  • Adult frogs assist with pest control by eating insects and mollusks.

  • Frogs are food for predators like birds, snakes, and fish.

  • Frogs are strong bio-indicators. They are affected by water and land based pollution and thus highly susceptible to environmental change.

  • An abundance of frogs is a good sign of a thriving aquatic ecosystem.




 
 
 

Some may know March 14 as Pi day, but it's also "International Day of Action for Rivers".


The International Day of Action for Rivers is a time to come together in solidarity with rivers and the communities that protect and defend them.


By taking action on behalf of rivers, we affirm that we have the power to protect rivers and ensure that communities have access to clean free-flowing water and the right to participate in decisions directly affecting rivers, and ultimately, their lives.




 
 
 
We are asking for your help in sourcing gently-used items for sale in our Community Flea Market on March 30th! 

If you are able to donate, please contact Damon Conrad at sackvillerivers.ns.ca or at (902) 865 - 9238 to arrange a drop-off time. 


All proceeds from this event will help fund Sackville Rivers' various projects and programs."
