City of Coquitlam

The Riverview Horticultural Centre Society wishes to acknowledge the generous financial support of the City of Coquitlam who have awarded us two Spirit of Coquitlam Grants in the past several years. These Grants have been used to assist with the costs related to our annual Tree Tours on the səmiq̓ʷəʔelə/Riverview Lands. Spirit Grants have ensured that our Society can begin its 34th year of offering free tree tours that educate residents of all ages about the world-class collection of rare trees planted on the səmiq̓ʷəʔelə site. We are very grateful for the City of Coquitlam's continued support.

Burke Mountain Naturalists

The RHCS wishes to sincerely thank the Burke Mountain Naturalists for the generous financial support we have received recently from them. The Naturalists are well-known throughout the Tri-Cities and beyond for their steadfast stewardship of our natural surroundings and the RHCS was honoured to be chosen as their designated charity in December 2025. Thank you, Burke Mountain Naturalists!
