Quinte Conservation has announced the launch of its annual Adopt an Acre campaign for 2023.
Proceeds generated from the Adopt an Acre 2023 campaign will go towards rebuilding a Hi-Lo Bridge at the H.R. Frink Conservation Area.
The original Hi-Lo Bridge was built in 1993 and spanned the silver maple swamp.
However, in 2018, the bridge was torn down due to damage that was deemed to be beyond repair.
According to the conservation authority, bringing back the Hi-Lo Bridge will increase ease of access and will “provide visitors with an opportunity to explore and enjoy the breathtaking natural landscapes that the H.R. Frink CA offers.”
Through Adopt an Acre, a person symbolically adopts an acre of Quinte Conservation land for $30. In return, adopters will receive an official certificate and a tax receipt.
More information about the campaign can be found at Quinte Conservation’s website.
