Backyard tree planting program coming to CW

NeighbourWoods, in partnership with Green Legacy, Little Tree and four local arborists, is pilot testing a new and innovative program to boost the number of trees in Centre Wellington.

Here’s how it works

Residents who hire one of the participating arborists to cut down a tree – for example a dying ash - will be offered one free replacement.  Customers have two options:

- a 3 to 4-foot paper birch, white spruce or sugar maple provided by  Green Legacy; or

- customers who prefer a bigger tree, will receive a coupon for 15% off a tree purchased from Little Tree Garden Market.

Participating arborists are:

- Arborite Tree Care, 519-993-3340;

- Baum Tree Care, 226-383-2286;

- Full Circle Tree Service, 519-827-9408;

- MW Tree Service, 519-831-9848; and

- Out of Your Tree Care 226-820-3611.

Those interested in taking advantage of this program should call soon because the offer expires June 30 or when trees are gone.
