The Weed Pull at Rotary Park in Radium Hot Springs was one of those events, and brought out locals and visitors alike. There was an education booth and an opportunity to participate through identifying and removing the species that were targeted as priorities.<\/p>\n<p>At the Columbia Valley Community Foundation, our role is to provide strategic funding that supports projects aligned with community priorities. We\u2019re proud to fund initiatives like this one, which strengthen environmental stewardship, support climate resilience, and foster learning across our valley.<\/p>\n<p>This grant was provided
