Volunteer streamkeepers actively steward many of Campbell River’s urban creeks. From conducting basic maintenance to surveying fish populations, their work helps to maintain the health of our watersheds. Greenways acts as a facilitator for streamkeepers: liaising between groups, with City staff, and with DFO, and providing resources.
Greenways is responsible for doing maintenance and restoration work on a number of sites around Campbell River. Important environmentally, they are also significant to the community at large. Over the last half of a century, the estuary has gone through significant change. Together with various organizations and its fantastic volunteers, Greenways is working on the on-going restoration.

What better way to learn about environmental gems & issues than tackling them hands on? At Greenways, we support environmental education in the public school curriculum. Our school programs allow students to connect with course material in a meaningful way – and connect with their environment.
Greenways’ Adopt-A-Trail program in the Beaver Lodge Lands allows community members to actively participate in the stewardship of their local resources. Volunteers become responsible for maintaining their chosen trail over the course of a year (or more!), and are equipped with tools necessary for the job.

The Strathcona Good Food Box is a new project for Greenways! This is a program designed to make fresh, healthy, and safe produce both physically and financially accessible to those in remote North Island communities and Campbell River.
The Fruit Tree Project is a fruit-gleaning project designed to distribute fruit that would otherwise go unpicked to fruit tree owners, volunteer harvesters, and community partners. Last year was the pilot project for this idea and it was a great success.
