The Fairview Agricultural Society has developed a scenic and welcoming pollinator garden, complete with a bench and picnic table, easily accessed from the Cummings Lake Walking Trail. Stop in and enjoy the sounds and smells of summer amidst a variety of beautiful native plants, and check out the pollinator hotel and educational signage as well. This is the perfect spot to take a moment to learn about ways we can support Alberta’s native pollinators such as bees, wasps, and butterflies. You’ll be inspired to try some pollinator friendly gardening practices in your own space!For more information and location details, please visit – https://fairviewagsociety.com/pollinator-garden-project/

The trailhead can be reached by following a lane north from the intersection of 108 Ave and 108 St. This short lane leads to a parking lot. From the parking lot users pass through a pass through opening in the fence, across the plowed paved walking path to find the cross country ski trail a few metres away.
