Upcoming Program
Children aged 6-14 are invited to join the TFN Juniors program. Every child must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. We move around the city to enjoy the wildlife and discover new ravines and parks we may not have explored before.
Upcoming events
We are looking forward to another exciting program at Toronto Field Naturalist Juniors, and we’re hoping that many of you can join us on Saturday mornings, most often from 10am till noon. We will learn about Toronto species, where they live, and how to find them. Please put the following dates on your calendar. Also, please tell your friends!
- April 5th: Salamanders on the move (location TBD).
- May 17th: At Guildwood we will look for Migratory Songbirds and learn about the hazards they face in migration.
- June 8th: Don Scallen will join us in exploring nesting birds at the Humber Arboretum.
To join these events, please fill out a registration form. Before each event you will receive an invitation email with location details. If you have already filled out a registration form then you don’t have to do it again.
