🎃 Halloween is almost here! Before heading out for trick-or-treating tomorrow, take a quick look at the AQHI. Poor air quality can be scarier than ghosts and goblins—especially for children and those more sensitive to air pollution. Check the AQHI, plan ahead, and enjoy a spook-tacular Halloween! 👻

🌸 Wild Orchids of the LICA Region! 🌿

Did you know that our local wetlands, forests, and natural areas are home to some fascinating wild orchids? 🌱

From the delicate Blunt-leaved Rein Orchid and Frog Orchid to the unusual Northern Coralroot and Spotted Coralroot, these remarkable plants add beauty and biodiversity to the Beaver River watershed. You may even spot the Small Round-leaved Orchid growing in suitable habitats!

🌿 Did you know? Some orchids have highly specialized relationships with fungi in the soil that help them germinate and grow. Coralroot orchids are especially unique because they rely on fungi for nutrients rather than producing all their own food through photosynthesis.

These native plants are a wonderful reminder of the biodiversity found right here in our region. Keep an eye out when exploring natural areas, and remember to admire wild orchids where they grow. Please avoid picking or disturbing them!

🎥 Watch our reel to discover these five fascinating orchids found in the LICA region!
