Ottawa, your roots are showing.
The City is reviewing tree-planting programmes that it has used for residential streets, parks, and forest areas.
Those programmes,
- Trees in Trust
- Commemorative trees
- Parks and streetscape tree planting
- Green Acres - Ottawa's rural reforestation program
- Schoolyard Tree Planting Grant Program
have been around for 20 years, and the City is looking for your opinion on whether they work or should be changed.
