🌲 Have you met Boris? 🌲
With three seasons of educational content, Boris is a fun way for kids to learn about the amazing forest right in our own backyard! 🍄

Great news! 🌲
Our friend Boris in the Boreal Forest is back with seven new adventures in his 🌾Harvest Edition 🌾series!

Check out video one where Boris goes foraging at Machesis Lake in northern Alberta with the forest educators from the Northern Lights Forest Education Society.

It’s a kid-friendly introduction to boreal forest foraging, with plenty of discoveries hiding on the forest floor and along the lakeshore.
