Community Tree Planting event (York Region)

Whether you're young or young at heart, everyone is welcome to roll up their sleeves, get their hands dirty and make a difference as we plant native trees and remove Garlic Mustard* - an invasive species - to help restore our environment. Grab a shovel and gloves, dig in and work alongside other volunteers to provide lasting benefits for wildlife and the future of our community. Gloves and shovels are available but as supplies are limited, participants are welcome to bring their own.  

 

Each participant will receive their own tree seedling to take home and plant as a lasting reminder of the day. This family-friendly event is the perfect opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, learn something new and contribute to a greener future.  

 

* Garlic Mustard will only be removed if site conditions are ideal. A decision will be made closer to the event and communicated via social media.
