Join Protecting Talisman Lands Association and Small Change Fund in Protecting the Beaver Valley
The Beaver Valley, part of the UNESCO Niagara Escarpment Biosphere Reserve, is a beautiful, natural, and very unique part of Ontario BUT a large swath of undeveloped land, 133 acres, has been sold by the Municipality of Grey Highlands to a GTA developer.
The former Talisman Resort, located adjacent to these lands, is owned by another company and is already undergoing reasonably sized development, this deal won’t change that. What it does change is the community’s rural character, bucolic views, and the public’s access to hiking, snowmobiling, and water.
Charitable receipts provided.
Protecting the Beaver Valley
Story
Once it’s Gone, it’s Gone Forever – Protect the Escarpment in the Beaver Valley
We believe the Talisman lands that are currently undeveloped should remain undeveloped. This includes:
- Lands around the Beaver River, including all of the former golf course
- The active agricultural land at the top of the hill, immediately north of Sideroad 7A
- The former ski hill and the brow of the Escarpment
We believe in revitalizing the former Talisman Resort buildings, but any further development would have massive repercussions for the character of the Beaver Valley, the environment, the water and sewage infrastructure and the overall quality of life for area residents. Read more here.
We can Save the Beaver Valley – the area that we love.
This project is in partnership with Protecting Talisman Lands Association.
