Indigenous Language Learning - Outdoor Learning School & Store

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
These courses are open to everyone – both Indigenous and non-Indigenous participants who wish to learn to uplift language revitalization. If you are a non-Indigenous language learner, we invite you to review these reflections on what it means to be a non-Indigenous learner in an Indigenous language learning course. Indigenous languages carry connections to lands, ancestors, traditions, and contain ecological knowledge crucial for sustainable living, medicinal practices, and traditional storytelling, enriching our collective wisdom. By supporting Indigenous language revitalization efforts, we not only preserve linguistic diversity but also uphold Indigenous Peoples’ fundamental rights to their languages and cultures. Our intention being not to offer a second language program where participants achieve fluency, but rather to provide a spark—an introduction that inspires and encourages further engagement with the language and broader revitalization efforts. We aim to create a welcoming space where learners can begin their journey, build connections, and develop a foundation for future learning opportunities. Non-Indigenous participants can take steps towards reconciliation by participating in language courses like these as a way to uplift language revitalization and deepen their own understanding of local place. Indigenous language courses that our charity has offered in the past, and we hope to offer again, include: Ktunaxa Michif Nêhiyawêwin (Cree) Secwepemctsín Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe) Kanyen’keha (Mohawk) Mi’kmaq (Mi’kmaw) You can sign-up for our updates if you’d like to be notified of future courses.

Organic farming, Local food

Position: Organic farming
Farm: Windy Hill Organic Farm

Location: McKees Mills, near Moncton, New Brunswick
Accom.: on-site accommodation is available for one person

Windy Hill Organic Farm is located in lovely McKees Mills in Kent County, NB. We are 40 kms from Moncton, 8 km from the coast (and a very nice beach) and 4.5 km from St-Antoine (groceries, library, pharmacy - the basics of life). Windy Hill started operations in 2010 and we began our CSA program in 2011. We have over 100 CSA members and also sell produce at a local farmer's market. We grow a wide variety of vegetables and cover crops on 4 acres, raise chickens for meat and eggs and keep some goats for farmer milk and meat. There are three greenhouses and two tunnels for season extension, we raise all our own transplants, propagate our own sweet potato slips and a local beekeeper manages hives on the farm. Our array of solar panels helps to offset most of the farm's energy use, we strive to recycle farm byproducts and carefully manage water use on the farm. I am the sole owner and manager, as well as one of the workers, and I rely on a team of four keen and hard-working employees to help run this successful farm business.

There are two positions open on the farm for the 2026 season, each for 30-36 hours/week. Work may include caring for livestock: feeding, collecting eggs, moving mobile pen; milking goats, cleaning pens. Most of the work will be in the fields: transplanting, weeding, irrigating, harvesting, washing and packing vegetables as well as maintenance like grass cutting, simple construction and repairs. You will be trained in any skills needed to carry out farm work and I encourage feedback and questions. We meet as a team at the start of every work week for an overview of the week ahead and there is a lot of opportunity for discussion at our shared lunches.

Work weeks are flexible early in the season (May, early June) as we try to take advantage of good weather. Once we get into the full season we work Tuesdays to Fridays from 8:00 - 5:00, with an hour off for lunch, and some Saturday mornings. I feel it's really important to take some time to sit down together and to take a decent break midway through the day so we each take turns preparing lunch for the whole crew from farm food and other ingredients I provide.

The season begins in mid April and runs till the end of October/early November. Spring comes late to southeastern New Brunswick so prepare for cold, wet weather until late June. We can have a really hot summer and it usually starts getting cold again in late September/early October. Of course there will also be bugs: mosquitoes and blackflies though we're lucky to have fewer than most because of our windy location.

Salary starts at $17.00/hour and increases commensurate with relevant farm experience. Second quality (or "number 2") farm produce is available to workers for free and some crops are available for self harvest throughout the season. If you are a keen, self-directed learner you will have many opportunities to learn about vegetable growing, livestock care, cheese-making, bee-keeping, marketing, food security and more. We try to keep the work interesting by varying tasks among all workers so no one gets over-worked in one area. We also try to work with everyone's individual skills and abilities so some people may find themselves doing certain jobs more than others.

Accommodation is available for one person in a small (12'x16') fully equipped (kitchen, heat, hot water, shower, composting toilet) cabin on the farm property. Rent is $350/month and includes internet, shared laundry and electricity as well as access to all food grown on the farm. We are within biking distance to the nearest town, however it is still recommended that you have your own vehicle. I'm afraid we can't accommodate any pets on the farm.

I am looking for someone who has had at least one full season on a farm, preferably a vegetable farm, though I've found a good attitude and willingness to learn is even more important than experience. Other requirements include being a Canadian citizen or else eligible to work in Canada, able to work well with others as well as on your own; keen and focused; able to follow and carry out instructions; fit and healthy - able to easily lift and carry 40 lbs - and comfortable spending hours at a time bent over close to the ground; punctuality is important and a good attitude is paramount. The work is physically demanding and all tasks, even those appearing to be very simple, must be carried out in a thoughtful and mindful way.

Other abilities not required but looked upon favourably include: ability to drive standard shift vehicles, ability to operate a farm tractor and equipment, experience hand milking (cows, goats, sheep) and building and construction skills.

Please email your application letter and resume to: alysonchisholm@gmail.com

Municipal Infiltration Manual — Youth Climate Lab

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
In Canada, municipalities account for over 50% of the national greenhouse gas emissions (Source: Federation of Canadian Municipalities). This underlines the undeniable need for local climate action. But let's face it, municipal government structures can be daunting. Breaking them down, however, makes it easier to find openings for action.
The Infiltration Manual aims to demystify municipal governance structures and provide youth with practical knowledge and tools on how to take climate action at the local level. It covers a range of topics, including:

An overview of the structure of municipal government

A roadmap on how to gather community support

Tips on how to present an initiative to Council

A variety of email, meeting, and petition templates

This manual is divided into four sections, each composed of several modules that serve as your go-to guide for all municipal government and climate action questions. Interspersed throughout the manual are examples and insider tips. Use the table of contents to skip to the modules most relevant to you.

Empowerment Squared and McMaster University

Empowerment Squared, in partnership with McMaster University, is excited to launch the African Youth International Internship project that will place participants into structured 4-month internship placements in Liberia and Ghana.

The project aims to enhance employment opportunities and leadership capacity for emerging leaders and provide international experience to Canadian youth aged 18-30 years old of African descent by working with local organizations and partners in Ghana and Liberia. Internships will be focused on themes including gender-empowering educational research and inclusive growth, as well as climate change mitigation, adaptation, and environmental research.

Empowerment Squared and McMaster University believe that education and learning must transcend the walls of the classroom to be purposeful and connected to life and society. This project will take on the important task of supporting 100 Canadian youth and young adults of African descent to prepare for the future by developing culturally relevant skills and fluency in international development responsive to the emerging needs of the world.

Canadian National Institute of the Blind
Youth with sensory disability face significant barriers to employment compared to their peers. As such, CNIB is providing international internships for persons aged 18-30 who identify as living with sensory disabilities. Internships will span 12 weeks comprising of three weeks of predeparture onboarding and skills development training, eight weeks of international placement at a country in the Caribbean or Africa, followed by one week of concluding activities (reflection and debriefing). CNIB aims to provide meaningful international affairs experiences and real-world skillsets that will provide interns opportunities for success in their future careers.

Éducation International
Éducation internationale, a cooperative specialized in the internationalization of education, is proud to participate in the IYIP program by offering internships in various sectors such as administration, education, pedagogy, languages, communication, environment, human rights, gender equality and inclusion. Young college and university students, as well as those in vocational training and general adult education, can benefit from two types of internships, depending on their profile: short internships (4 to 6 weeks) in group with mentors, and long individual internships (up to 6 months). Internships are offered in several partner organizations in the following countries: Senegal, Ivory Coast, Mexico, Peru, and Bolivia.

By 2029, IYIP aims to deploy over 900 interns to more than forty developing countries.

Voici quelques exemples de projets inspirants financés par les subventions Libérez votre nature à l'école.
Boucherville, Qc, École Paul VI - Projet jardin de monarques
Le projet consiste à impliquer les enfants dans les étapes de création d'un jardin pour monarques afin de leur faire prendre conscience de l'existence des espèces menacées, de l'importance des écosystèmes et de la possibilité pour eux d'avoir un impact réel sur leur environnement. Les élèves devront proposer des emplacements pour le jardin et sélectionner des plantes indigènes. Cela leur permettra d'en apprendre d'avantages sur le monarque, son cycle de vie et son habitat. Les élèves participeront à la plantation, à l'entretien et prendront part à l'observation des résultats.
Montréal, Qc, HEC Montréal - Orléans, Ont., École St-Jacques-le-Mineur, Qc, École St-Jacques - Découvrir, grandir et s'épanouir en plein air secondaire catholique Béatrice-Desloges St-Pascal, Qc, École Secondaire Chanoine-Beaudet - Les plates-bandes comestibles -Tecumseh, Ont., École Élémentaire Catholique Saint-Antoine - Jardins potager et pollinisateur Jardin scolaire communautaire Bibliothèque de semences
Notre projet consiste à implanter une bibliothèque de semences sur le campus du HEC Montréal afin de mettre en place un processus de conservation des semences indigènes et anciennes pouvant faire preuve d'une grande résilience face aux changements climatiques. Le but serait que les étudiant.e.s puissent se servir gratuitement en semences dans la bibliothèque afin de faire partir des semis chez elles et eux. Il leur sera demandé de rapporter par la suite une partie des semences produites à la bibliothèque. Nous souhaitons également planter davantage d'espèces indigènes, dont deux considérées comme menacées, dans notre campus afin de pouvoir en récolter les semences, les conserver au sein de la bibliothèque et faire en sorte d'aider ces espèces à se propager grâce au système de prêt de semences.

Notre projet aide à la réalisation d'un jardin scolaire et communautaire. Ce jardin permettra aux élèves de s'engager dans la gestion d'un écosystème durable sur les lieux de l'école. De plus, le jardin sera accessible aux membres de la communauté dans le but de créer un partenariat entre l'école et le quartier. Les élèves du cours de construction participeront à la conception et à la fabrication de plates-bandes surélevées. La première phase consistera ainsi à planter des fleurs et des arbustes vivaces dans le but d'attirer des pollinisateurs. Les plantes seront entretenues et utilisées par les élèves des cours d'hôtellerie de l'école.

Nous désirons améliorer les plates-bandes de l'école afin d'y planter des fleurs favorisant la pollinisation.  Ce projet nous permettra de développer le sentiment d'appartenance des élèves, de fierté envers leur école, en plus de les sensibiliser à la nature qui les entoure. En privilégiant des plantes mellifères, nous pourrons observer les insectes qui viendront se nourrir du pollen des fleurs. Nous ferons des semis en classe et apprendrons le cycle de vie des plantes. Nous désirons aussi semer des tournesols afin d'en récolter les graines pour nourrir les oiseaux durant l'hiver.

Nous souhaitons aménager un jardin comestible dans lequel nous planterons des fleurs et des plantes comestibles afin d'augmenter la biodiversité sur le territoire aux environs de l'école. Les élèves apprendront à aménager un jardin et à le cultiver. Il.elle.s apprendront aussi l'importance de la biodiversité dans l'aménagement du jardin. Ce projet se fera en collaboration avec la communauté ainsi que le centre de la petite enfance. Les élèves du secondaire entretiendront le jardin et permettront aux enfants de la garderie d'en apprendre plus sur l'importance d'écosystèmes sains. Les choix des variétés plantées se feront en fonction de favoriser la présence des insectes pollinisateurs.

Nous avons déjà des jardins à l'école que nous aimerions utiliser pour planter des légumes et pour planter des fleurs qui attirent les pollinisateurs. Les élèves apprendront comment semer des graines, transplanter les plantes dans le jardin, les soigner et en faire la récolte.  Ils pourront aussi observer l'effet sur les insectes pollinisateurs de notre région.

Primary And Secondary (Grades K-12)

Edmonton, AB, Elves Special Needs Society - Elves Community Garden
This Go Wild project will ensure that spaces created for connecting with nature are set up to allow all students the opportunity to engage with and enjoy nature without barriers related to mobility, financial accessibility, or overall awareness. The garden space will be organized to include native plants of local Indigenous significance, carefully selected to be safe for handling by all students, including those with cognitive impairments.

Calgary, AB, Louis Riel School - Louis Riel School Outdoor Classroom
Native Alberta trees and plants will be planted to further support the frequent wildlife visitors to the school, which include hares, birds and bees. Students are ready to monitor the impact of the new habitat on wildlife and will be tracking changes with citizen science.

Grande Prairie, AB, Hillcrest Christian School - Garden Rehabilitation
Hillcrest Christian School's front garden will be undergoing restoration, returning the area which is overrun with invasive plants to one that is productive and beneficial to pollinators. After a careful semester of planning, the students will host a series of planting events, encouraging the whole school to participate and appreciate this new wildlife habitat.

Squamish, BC, Valleycliffe Elementary - Wetland Habitat Restoration
This project will restore the school's ephemeral wetland and spotlight its importance to native species and those of concern that have reappeared in the community since the wetland was first built. With bioblitz events, the school will inventory all plants and species that call the wetland home. The wetland is enjoyed by the local community who will gain even greater appreciation for this habitat with the identification tags and signs the students will develop.

Vancouver, BC, Kerrisdale Elementary School - Habitat Stewardship Project
Fortunate to have large school grounds in urban Vancouver, Kerrisdale Elementary would like to share the space with wildlife. This project will create a number of different mini native ecosystems and will raise awareness of the planted native Indigenous plants by having students create art installations.

Qualicum Beach, BC, Arrowsmith Independent School - Community Garden Walk
Across two acres of land, students will create a natural walking trail with the surrounding habitat lining the trail restored with native ferns and trees. Not only will more insects and birds be welcomed to the area, by monitoring and tracking the plants and wildlife each year, students will have access to experiential learning opportunities and understand the role they can play in creating a sustainable future.

North Vancouver, BC, Cove Cliff Elementary - Plots of Joy and Beauty
To welcome pollinators, native plants and trees will be planted, giving students hands-on experiences with gardening and observing and tracking wildlife with citizen science platforms like iSeek. While learning about the life cycles of plants and animals, the social and emotional aspects of gardening will be highlighted to support student well-being. This project will cut across curriculum, including language arts, fine arts, math and science, health and careers, and Aboriginal studies.

Burnaby, BC, University Highlands Elementary - Forest Understory Restoration
Exploration of the forest understory has become a favourite activity of students at University Highlands Elementary. But it is a sensitive ecosystem, and to steward and care for it, school students are learning about Traditional Ecological Knowledge and the Indigenous histories of the area. With that knowledge, they will be restoring the forest understory, and learning about their role in land stewardship.

Quesnel, BC, Carson Elementary School - Indigenous Plant Garden
Expanding on their successful outdoor classroom, Carson Elementary students will be building an Indigenous Garden using plants of significance to the Carrier First Nation. Plant ID tags will feature Carrier plant names and a description of traditional Carrier uses. Students will also learn how to propagate plants and how to care for them year-round.

Courtenay, BC, Courtenay Elementary School - What Happens When You Grow a Forest?
Students at Courtenay Elementary School have an important vision - to create the community's first pioneer forest! Phase 1 of the project this year will include breaking ground on the first half acre with native plants and trees for local birds. The students have already conducted a baseline inventory of the area's birds and plants and will be able to track the positive changes for wildlife as the forest grows.

Powell River, BC, Brooks Secondary School - Learning Living Lands
Students will be restoring an area of the schoolyard into an urban living lab 'mini forest' for use by local schools. The living lab will allow students to plant and care for plants and trees, monitor growth, assess habitat requirements, and learn about the importance of biodiversity. The students will also develop teaching tools for elementary students around plant identification.

Kamloops, BC, South Kamloops Secondary - Peterson Creek Restoration
South Kamloops Secondary students are getting real-life experience in the field by conducting a health assessment of a local creek and developing an ecosystem restoration and stewardship plan. With support from the Natural Resources team with the City of Kamloops, students will action their plan, with a new cohort of students carrying on the work each year.

Richmond, BC, Matthew McNair Secondary School - Bat-friendly School District
Matthew McNair Secondary is going wild once again! Their first project supported the City of Richmond in becoming certified as a Bat-Friendly community. Expanding on this work further, they are up for the challenge of making their School District a Bat-friendly one. Students have devised a plan to install bat boxes around the school neighborhood that can be monitored regularly from the courtyard. Working closely with neighbors, McNair students will install bat boxes in neighbouring yards, creating a network of habitats to support local bats of concern.

Campbell River, BC, Ripple Rock Elementary - Ripple Rock Native Plant Garden
A large area of the school's front lawn will be converted into a native plant garden for students and the local community to enjoy. Using the school's compost soil, each native plant species will be grown and also labelled to include details about its traditional uses. Students will create a Native Plant Dictionary, which will be produced for each classroom in the school, using photos directly from the new garden.

Falkland, BC, Falkland Elementary - Starting our forest
Learning from challenges experienced in the past that impacted the growth of plants planted, Falkland Elementary has brought all hands on deck to create a forest one step at a time. After much research, they will be starting with a small area first to build up the soil quality. Without support in previous summers, the school has created a summer maintenance plan to steward the project while school is out.

Courtenay, BC, Lake Trail Middle School - Arden Creek Restoration
Lake Trail Middle School students serve as big buddies to the local primary school and will begin educating their little buddies on the importance of riparian habitat through this creek restoration project. Over the years, the banks of the creek behind the school have moved away from their natural stage. With this project, native plants will be planted to direct foot-traffic away from the banks and stabilize them, while also providing shade and protection for the juvenile salmon and trout. Signage will be installed to educate the trail's visitors on this important habitat, and how to steward it.

Vancouver, BC, Chief Maquinna Elementary School - Medicine Wheel Garden
Having undergone earthquake upgrading, the school grounds have been torn up and there is now a special opportunity to restore the area with native Indigenous plants and educate the students on these important ecosystem features. To build and maintain the garden, every class will pair with another, where each pair of classrooms will be responsible for different sections of the garden for the entire year. And the Musqueam First Nations community will be consulted with for inspiration, garden design, and Traditional Knowledge.

Vancouver, BC, École Laura Secord Elementary School - Pollinator Habitats
Observing pollinators passing through their schoolyard, École Laura Secord Elementary School will be building a garden to provide these butterflies and bees with sustenance and habitat. This will be an opportunity for more outdoor learning, and observation of the life cycles of plants and insects.

About the resource

This toolkit has been created to help young people establish a youth climate council in their cities and communities. Available in and, it provides step-by-step guidance on how to create a youth climate council and effectively work with city representatives for impactful and meaningful participation of young people in city-led climate action.

It also offers insights into how similar youth participation mechanisms have worked in decision making processes on local and national levels as well as resources aimed at providing young people with further guidance on actively participating in city climate initiatives.
The toolkit sets out 12 steps aimed at guiding young people in process of creating youth climate councils to help shape and drive climate action in their cities and communities:

Step 1: Identify the goal and opportunities of city-youth engagement: Define your objectives for working with the city on climate action initiatives.

Step 2: Analyse the trajectory of youth advocacy on climate change: Evaluate the ways your city is being impacted by the climate crisis and the trajectory of local youth advocacy on climate action.

Step 3: Reflect on your city's past and ongoing engagement with young people: Analyse how young people have been engaged in your city's climate action and decision-making processes so far. Understand their interests, challenges, and the opportunities they have been offered. Then, use these insights to plan your engagement with the city.

Step 4: Build partnerships: Identify active youth climate groups in your city. Reach out to them and explore opportunities for collaboration.

Step 5: Reach out to your city representatives: Identify and reach out to city representatives to discuss the potential for a local youth climate council and prepare your case for establishing one.

Step 6: Prepare to meet city representatives: Reflect on the practical aspects of establishing a youth climate council. Partner with other young people and groups to develop a proposal for how the youth climate council could be structured. Identify ways to balance the needs and expectations of young people with the practicalities of working with city representative

Step 7: Establish a strong relationship with city representatives: Actively engage and build a collaborative relationship with city representatives. Consider how their expertise and resources can support the establishment and implementation of a youth climate council.

Step 8: Assess training and capacity-building needs: Identify the specific skills and knowledge needed for youth leaders to participate in a youth climate council. Plan a set of capacity-building sessions that will address these needs.

Step 9: Maintain collaboration with city representatives: Actively engage with city representatives, ensuring that young people's views are helping to shape the structure and activities of the youth climate council.

Step 10: Operationalise the youth climate council: Assign a dedicated youth representative to liaise with city representatives. This will ensure ongoing communications and meaningful collaboration between youth climate council members and the city.

Step 11: Regularly assess and address the needs of the council: Continue to monitor the priorities, evolving needs, and impact of the youth climate council's initiatives.

Step 12: Celebrate success: Amplify the successes and impact of your city-youth collaboration.

The toolkit is complemented by a guide for city practitioners available on the C40 Knowledge Hub.
