Our Backyard Tree Planting Program offers native trees and shrubs to property owners at a subsidized cost to residents of the City of Toronto, City of Vaughan and the Town of Markham. With the support of York Region we are working to expand this service.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE NOW BOOKING CONSULTATIONS FOR FALL 2009 PLANTING.

Our certified arborists help residents make educated decisions about the type of tree that suits their property and where it should be planted. Since our first planting season in 1996, we've planted over 13,000 native trees and shrubs throughout Toronto and Markham.

At the bottom of this page you will find a pdf copy of our Backyard Planting Program brochure which can be downloaded. It summarizes the program, shows silhouettes of all trees and lists the names of all shrubs we offer. This brochure is excellent for promoting the program to others. Feel free to print your own copies, or contact us if you would like colour copies to distribute.

Also below you will find a summary chart of all shrub species we are offering this spring in pdf format. This chart describes each shrub and its special features. It's great for comparing if you're deciding what to plant.

And finally below you will also find our current price list for all trees and shrubs. Please note that the price you pay for trees includes a backyard consultation with a certified arborist, the tree itself and our full planting service.
