Friends of Lower Fort Garry

Bringing New Energy to One of Canada’s Historic Treasures

The Friends of Lower Fort Garry are committed to promoting Canada’s natural and cultural heritage through awareness, educational and sensory experiences. Our passionate group of volunteers seeks out independent and collaborative partnerships with LFGNHS. We also focus on nurturing positive relationships with the community of Selkirk, the Interlake, and the greater Winnipeg area. We welcome you to explore the site and learn more about our offerings, such as the Stone Fort Trading Company gift shop, the Adventurer’s Day Camp, seasonal events, and much more.

Your generosity provides opportunities for us to enhance the Lower Fort Garry NHS as well as to offer educational opportunities for Manitoban’s to learn, grow and explore Canadian History.
