Residents are invited to participate in the four-day City Nature Challenge from Friday, April 26 to Monday, April 29. This will be Peterborough's second year participating in the challenge!
On Friday, April 26 and Saturday, April 27, the City of Peterborough is hosting a community event in Ecology Park, 1899 Ashburnham Dr. with guided hikes and children's activities. The event is part of the City Nature Challenge, a global competition to record nature sightings in communities from around the world. The City is partnering with the Peterborough Field Naturalists (PFN) who will help participants record wildlife observations using the iNaturalist app. All of the observations will be confirmed and tallied as part of Peterborough's official submission to the City Nature Challenge. Winning communities for the highest number of wildlife observations, total species observed, and number of participants will be announced in May.
