MECA has launched a nest box program tailored to the needs of the Bluebird, with the goal of significantly increasing its population in the Sutton area.

Recent observations confirm the success of the operation and underscore the need to continue this highly promising initiative.

In 2017, the David Suzuki Foundation launched the Butterflyway project—a volunteer-driven initiative that brings nature back to neighborhoods, one garden at a time. MECA believes it is essential to build our community’s capacity to engage with biodiversity at every level.

Our Goals : to raise awareness about the importance of native plants, increase the number of pollinator-friendly gardens, and organize lectures throughout the community.

Butterflyway Garden — Knowlton Academy :

MECA is proud to partner with Knowlton Academy in Brome Lake to create a thriving pollinator garden on the school grounds. Working with the children is a deeply rewarding experience.

Thank you to Heidi Neil and her fellow teachers, whose leadership brought this project to life.
