2013 Trees Ontario Community Planting Weekend - Barrie May 4, 2013

The community that plants together, grows together! Join Trees Ontario this upcoming May 4th for its annual Community Planting Weekend.

On May 4th, Trees Ontario and local planting partners will host seven free community tree planting events across the province.

Hosted by Trees Ontario, CAA South Central Ontario and TD Friends of the Environment, this annual Community Planting Weekend event brings together families, community members and volunteers to take part in a half day tree planting activity, promoting local engagement and environmental awareness.

All the Community Planting Weekend events are held rain or shine and participants are asked to bring a shovel, gardening gloves and a lot of energy! Trees Ontario will supply the rest – the trees, forestry specialists, mulch and snacks. Appropriate outdoor clothing, sturdy shoes (steel toe if possible), a hat and sunscreen are recommended. Parking will be available.

This event is open to the public, however space is limited and pre-registration is appreciated.
