Kay’s Call to Action

This story was written by a long-time ecoCaledon member and passionate advocate for sustainability, Kathryn “Kay” MacDuffee. Her voice, commitment, and deep care for the environment left a lasting impact on our community. Though she is no longer with us, Kay's words continue to inspire us to live more gently on the planet. We share this story in their honour and with gratitude for the legacy she left behind.
