EP 07 - Jim Good
from Crazy Damn Canadians Hosted by Scott McWalter
Jim Good spent his life studying native plant life. In later years, he travelled throughout Canada from coast to coast finding, recording, pressing and photographing hundreds of thousands of plant, tree and flower species, bringing many of them back to a designated park in Northern British Columbia. Now retired, Jim continues to share his life stories, work and success with the public at Goodsir Nature Parks, which is a botanical oasis. There is nothing in the world like Goodsir Nature Park and it a true Canadian treasure. The park is perfect for visitors, families and groups looking for an interpretive and educational experience showcasing Canada's history. The park is a must for all of Canada's residents and visitors to experience. The park was recently named by TripAdvisor as one of the top 10 best places in Canada to visit. Goodsir Nature Park was built over a lifetime by one person, Jim Good, who also served in the junior forest wardens in the 1960’s and 70’s. ‘Goodsir Nature Park is a place where you can come experience a first-hand relaxing environment. The trails are well-maintained and along the way you’ll see various interpretive signs identifying all native plant and tree life in the region. Two botanical gardens have native trees from other areas of BC as well as different provinces and territories growing there.’ https://www.goodsirnaturepark.ca/ Spotify:
