TONIGHT – Free Public First Story Toronto Tour at Warden Woods

By FirstStoryTO

First Story Toronto guides Philip Cote and Jon Johnson will be leading a free public walking tour in Warden Woods to share the Indigenous history and plant knowledge in the area. The walk will start at 6:30pm at 40 Teesdale Pl and will be about 2.5 hours in length. The walk is being offered as part of StART’s Pharmacy Avenue Underpass Art Project. The lead artist for this project, Jarus, will also be there. We look forward to seeing you there!

    Hello. I’m so sorry that I missed this event! It’s in my neighbourhood, and I teach outdoor education in this community as well. I’d love to add more Indigenous perspective to my knowledge, and I have colleagues who would be interested as well. Any chance you’ll be leading another walk in Warden Woods this year?

      Now that we’ve done the tour once it would be much easier to organize a future tour in the area. We don’t currently have plans to lead another free public tour in the area, but if we do we will advertise it via our blog and social media so stay tuned!
