That\u2019s why I was so excited to help bring the <strong>David Suzuki Butterflyway Project<\/strong> to Wolseley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This isn\u2019t a City of Winnipeg initiative. It started as a grassroots effort when a dedicated community member approached me about the idea. Together, and with support from the Wolseley Residents Association, we were able to shine a light on this opportunity and bring it to life in our area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Butterflyway Project is a Canada-wide movement that creates pollinator-friendly gardens and green spaces. The goal is to form pathways\u2014or \u201cButterflyways\u201d\u2014where butterflies, bees, and other pollinators can safely thrive. These pollinators play a vital role in maintaining biodiversity and keeping our environment healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Wolseley, residents have stepped up, planting native wildflowers and creating spaces that support these important species. This is exactly the kind of community-led initiative that makes Winnipeg special\u2014people coming together to protect nature, enhance our neighbourhoods, and build a legacy for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can learn more about the project and how you can get involved here: <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/davidsuzuki.org\/take-action\/act-locally\/butterflyway\/\">David Suzuki Butterflyway Project<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m proud of what we\u2019ve started in Wolseley, and I know this is only the beginning. When we work together with a shared purpose, there\u2019s no limit to what we can accomplish for our community and our environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve always believed that strong communities are built when we work together to make our neighbourhoods more vibrant, healthy, and &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"Bringing the Butterflyway Project to Wolseley\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/2025\/07\/30\/bringing-the-butterflyway-project-to-wolseley\/#more-6107\" aria-label=\"Read more about Bringing the Butterflyway Project to Wolseley\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":6108,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[29,21,30,31],"class_list":["post-6107","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-projects","tag-butterflyway","tag-cindy-gilroy","tag-pollinatiors","tag-wolseley","infinite-scroll-item","masonry-post","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-20","resize-featured-image"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6107","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6107"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6107\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6109,"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6107\/revisions\/6109"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6108"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6107"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6107"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cindygilroy.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6107"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
