If you are looking to plant trees next spring you should call right away as our spring tree planting program is filling up fast. The St. Clair Region Conservation Authority has qualified staff to help you plan, fund and carry out your tree planting program. Trees provide a host of benefits including protecting soil from erosion, protecting water quality, flood control, increased crop yields adjacent to windbreaks, oxygen production and wildlife habitat as well as a more beautiful landscape.
Start with a phone call to the Conservation Authority. A staff member will assist you with your tree order and if required, meet with you to discuss your project and advise you of any grant opportunities that are available to assist. If you wish to proceed, they will produce a planting plan and make recommendations regarding site preparation and the best species to plant. Click here for more information
