Tree Planting

Private contractor machine planting plantation under 50 million program
The majority of the tree planting in Leeds and Grenville takes place on private land.  Many of the areas that landowners and the council consider for tree planting are marginal farm land that is no longer needed for farming or has been abandoned.  The council is a registered Program Delivery Agent with the organization Trees Ontario.  Through this partnership the council is able to provide tree planting programs to land owners at a subsidized rate.  More information on 50 Million Tree Program  page.
