The Gorge Creek salt marsh is a rare and ecologically rich brackish ecosystem that we are working to restore and protect.

The Pollinator Meadow boosts insect biodiversity by attracting native species to Esquimalt Gorge Park.

Sherwood Forest is the woodland East of the Nature House that hosts many restoration projects to support wildlife and forest health.

Since 2022, we have conducted a yearly eelgrass survey to keep a record of changes to the habitat.

The Indigenous Nature Interpreter (INI) Stewardship Site is designed as a place for the Esquimalt and Songhees Nations to gather, engage with, and learn about culturally significant plants.

In collaboration with the BC Conservation Foundation and Vancouver Island University, we have been monitoring Gorge Creek for 6-PPDQ: a toxin from tires that can be fatal to salmonids.

Amphibians are often used as indicator species because many are susceptible to contamination and changes in their environment, and have limited ability to migrate large distances.

With the DFO, we have been monitoring for the presence of invasive European green crabs in the Gorge Waterway.
