Events

The closing event of this year’s Less Lawn More Life Challenge, will be led by Lisa Olsen, Chapter Liaison at Wild Ones. In this webinar, you’ll learn how small, personal actions like planting native species and removing invasives, can ripple outward to inspire neighbors, change policies, and reshape communities. 

During the premiere, native plant experts from Wild Ones and collaborating organizations will be active in the live chat. They’ll be ready to answer questions, share tips, and connect viewers with resources. The live chat will remain open for 30 minutes after the webinar, giving you plenty of time to ask questions and engage. Please note: You must be logged into a YouTube account to participate in the chat. 

The Less Lawn More Life Challenge is a free, 12-week action series designed to help people transform traditional lawns into vibrant, life-supporting native plant habitat. Each week, participants complete a simple challenge like planting a native shrub, removing invasives, or observing pollinators to reimagine their outdoor space and take meaningful steps toward restoring biodiversity at home. 

It’s not too late to get involved. Catch up on the weekly videos and start your rewilding journey today at https://www.lesslawnmorelife.com/ 

Join us for a tour of part of this exciting project led by The Riverline Executive Director Jeff Lebsack. This is a members only event and attendance is capped at 20. An additional date of Saturday, August 2 may be added if there is a greater response.

The Riverline will be a vibrant and innovative nature trail and greenway that links downtown Buffalo to the Buffalo River.
​
All of us deserve access to the benefits of nature and to beautiful, restorative public spaces in our lives.  But right now many of Buffalo's communities are cut off from these opportunities by industrial infrastructure that once built the city, but now divides neighborhoods from our waterfront, the natural world, and one another.

​

​The Riverline is based on a vision created by the community. It will transform the former DL&W elevated rail corridor along the Buffalo River into a string of vibrant and engaging experiences in nature that everyone can enjoy—right in the city, only minutes from downtown.
​
The Riverline will be an inspiring gathering place that connects people to water, nature, and each another. It will prioritize native plants and animals, health and wellness, public art, and community; it will inspire curiosity, connections, and exploration; and it will help build a healthy, inclusive, thriving, and opportunity-rich city in every neighborhood.
