The Town of Kentville will be taking action to manage the spread of the invasive Hemlock Woolly Adelgid (HWA) in the Gorge Park.

As part of this effort, targeted pesticide applications will be carried out to help protect the health of the forest. All work will be completed in accordance with provincial safety and environmental standards, and staff will be taking every precaution to ensure public and ecological safety throughout the process.

If you have any questions about this initiative, please contact conservation@kentville.ca.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to protect the Gorge.
