Tree Planting   RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO
 

TREE PLANTING - Doing our bit for the environment - one tree at a time!
  • We have participated in a number of tree planting activities in the community. While doing so, we have learned quite a bit about tree planting.

  • We learn about what it takes to plant a tree or shrub well so that it will survive. We also learn about native species.

  • http://www.wildaboutgardening.org/en/growing/section4/index.htm contains a database of native Canadian plants. 

  • We have planted in a variety of locations close to us. They include:
