The trees will serve a
number of environmental
purposes including creat-
ing buffers along
streams, reforesting
floodplains, increasing
forest cover and reduc-
ing soil erosion by retir-
ing erosion -prone farm-
land.
Grants from Healthy
Futures for Ontario
Agriculture, Habitat
Stewardship Project,
Canada -Ontario
Agreement, Ontario
Power Generation and
Huron Stewardship
Council helped pay for
projects to improve
water quality or fish and
wildlife habitat.
The ABCA will be
planting trees for 22
landowners and 131
families will be planting
their own trees.
Tree planting is an
important component of
the ABCA's vision of
healthy watersheds and
goal of achieving 20 per
cent tree cover. Today,
most townships have less
than 10 per cent. More
than five million trees
have been planted
through the ABCA.
People interested in
planting trees this fall or
next spring can contact
the ABCA at 235-2610 or
go to www.abca.on.ca to
receive an order form.
