65,000 TREE CHALLENGE – THE CHALLENGE IS ON!

It’s spring, which is a great time to plant a tree! Every tree planted in Halton Hills goes towards the community’s 65,000 Tree Challenge. 
Two years ago, Trees for Halton Hills challenged the community to plant 65,000 trees within 5 years. One for every resident of Halton Hills. 
“While several thousand trees have been planted, we have a long way to go”, explained Corrina McAloon, Project Coordinator with Trees for Halton Hills. “To meet the 65,000 Tree Challenge, we need every person in Town to find a place to plant a tree. Plant one in your yard, at your school, your place of worship, or at your workplace.
If you have a good look at all those places in the community, you’ll see that there are lots of spots a tree could be planted.”
After you plant a tree, you should register it at www.treesforhaltonhills.ca so that it’s counted towards meeting the 65,000 Tree Challenge. It’s easy to do.
“There are so many good reasons to plant a tree” said Dr. Don Trant, the Chair of the Board of Trees for Halton Hills. “A tree beautifies your property and increases its value. Trees also play an important role in combating climate change, providing shade and improving air quality. Trees even help to improve our mental health. And when you plant native species trees, you are helping the birds and the bees and all the other wildlife to thrive.”
Trees for Halton Hills is a local non-profit group that was established in 2020 with the objective of encouraging the community to plant trees and meet the 65,0000 Tree Challenge. Since its inception, it has led many community tree planting projects on public lands and also established a small Arboretum at Joseph Gibbons Park off Delrex Blvd.
All are welcome to volunteer with Trees for Halton Hills. Go to www.treesforhaltonhills.ca.

Be sure to get your $30.00 gift voucher from the Town towards the purchase of a tree!

One of the most lauded independent Canadian bands of all time. You can trace the roots of the Low back to 1983, when Ron Hawkins and David Alexander played in a heavily politicized band called Social Insecurity. In the late 80s, Ron and David were joined by guitarist Stephen Stanley, and John Arnott on bass. The quartet built a faithful following and a very full dance card on the strength of their joyous live shows, where they perfected the Low's mix of clever wordplay, razor-sharp hooks and airtight harmonies.
