Brewery Discovery Routes feature the Greenbelt

The 2017 Brewery Discovery Routes have arrived! Three of the routes feature some of the Greenbelt's most scenic views and rich culinary experiences. Explore Saints & Sinners south of Georigan Bay, Hamilton's True Brew Path, and Rural Routes & Dirty Boots in Durham!

Greenbelt Book Tour Highlights To celebrate the release of The Greenbelt we hit the road for a book tour. We heard from many voices and stories, from the beginning of the movement to create Ontario's Greenbelt, to shared aspirations for the future.

Celebrate World Environment DayOntario’s Greenbelt seems made for the theme of this year’s World Environment Day, ‘Connecting People to Nature.’ To celebrate, we reflected on the myriad of ways we get outside and enjoy the Greenbelt's natural opportunities.

Hit the market for Local Food Week!We encourage eating local all year round, and this week in particular—it's Local Food Week! Head into the Greenbelt to support local growers and markets. Use the Greenbeltfresh guide to find markets and produce near you!
