We did it! Last week, over 1,950 volunteers across Canada planted 7,780 trees and shrubs and 1,128 non-woody plants in celebration of National Tree Day! 🌳 The trees that were planted and cared for will grow to create habitat for biodiversity, provide shade to cool our cities, help fight climate change, and bring people closer to nature for years to come. đŸŒ±đŸ From all of us at Tree Canada, thank you to everyone who participated for your incredible dedication and spirit. This movement is only possible because of you. A heartfelt thank you to our presenting sponsor, BMO, for making National Tree Day possible for the fourth year in a row.

Becoming a parent changes the way you see the world and sometimes, the quiet moments beneath the trees say the most. 💚🌿 Ahead of Mother’s Day, Tree Canada’s Communications Specialist, Valerie Molino, reflects on how time spent beneath budding trees during her son’s first year became a source of comfort, connection, and transformation through the highs and lows of new motherhood. đŸ‘©â€đŸ‘Š A tender reminder that growth is happening all around us, even when we don’t recognize it yet. 🎧 Listen to the recording or read it on our blog: https://treecanada.ca/article/how-trees-shaped-my-first-year-as-a-mom/ - Devenir parent change notre façon de voir le monde, et parfois, ce sont les moments de calme sous les arbres qui en disent le plus. 💚🌿 À l’approche de la fĂȘte des MĂšres, la spĂ©cialiste des communications d’Arbres Canada, Valerie Molino, partage une rĂ©flexion touchante sur la façon dont les moments passĂ©s sous les arbres en bourgeons, durant la premiĂšre annĂ©e de vie de son fils, sont devenus une source de rĂ©confort, de connexion et de transformation Ă  travers les hauts et les bas de la maternitĂ©. đŸ‘©â€đŸ‘Š Un doux rappel que la croissance se produit tout autour de nous, mĂȘme lorsque nous ne la remarquons pas encore. 🎧 Écoutez l’enregistrement ou lisez l’article sur notre blogue : https://arbrescanada.ca/article/le-role-des-arbres-dans-ma-premiere-annee-de-maman/ #mothersday #fĂȘtedesmĂšres #motherhood #maternitĂ© #trees #arbres

Successful restoration truly requires a collaborative approach, and this spring we saw that collaboration in action while reforesting the Skwlāx te SecwĂ©pemcĂșl̓ecw Quaaout Indian Reserve (IR 1) lands impacted by the 2023 Bush Creek East wildfire. A total of 1.1 million seedlings were planted across the Quaaout IR lands using a diverse mix of Douglas-fir, ponderosa pine, western larch, western redcedar, and Engelmann spruce to support long-term forest recovery, watershed resilience, biodiversity, wildlife habitat, and future climate adaptation across the landscape. The primary objective of this project was to accelerate the recovery of heavily fire-affected forests while helping restore ecological function, reduce long-term erosion risk, support future forest cover, and create a healthier and more resilient landscape for future generations. The successful completion of this project would not have been possible without the key collaboration and contributions from Skwlāx te Secwepemcúl̓ecw (Little Shuswap Lake Band), Tree Canada and their National Greening Program. Cariboo Carbon Solutions also contributed through their 2 Billion Trees funding, which was matched by Skwlax Timber Corporation. In true collaborative fashion, the project brought together multiple organizations and crews working toward a common goal of wildfire recovery and long-term stewardship of the land: đŸŒČTree Canada — key funding partner. đŸŒČSkwlāx te SecwĂ©pemcĂșl̓ecw Territorial Resource Stewardship, Guardians Program, and Skwlax Timber Limited Partnership. đŸŒČBeavertooth Resources Limited— danger tree assessment and mitigation services. đŸŒČSaskan Consulting Limited — quality assessment and training. đŸŒČCariboo Carbon Solutions — project development and management. đŸŒČZanzibar Holdings Ltd. — implementation of the reforestation activities. We are incredibly proud to have played a role in this important wildfire recovery effort and look forward to continuing this work together in the years ahead.

Like the trees, we keep learning how to stand tall, adapt, and grow, not apart from nature, but with it. At Tree Canada, we see that connection every day. Each planting, each project, and each partnership is proof that growth takes time, care, and collaboration. - Comme les arbres, nous apprenons sans cesse Ă  nous tenir droits, Ă  nous adapter et Ă  grandir, non pas sĂ©parĂ©ment de la nature, mais avec elle. Chez Arbres Canada, on observe ce lien chaque jour. Chaque plantation, chaque projet et chaque partenariat tĂ©moignent que la croissance exige du temps, de l’attention et de la collaboration.

Veteran Forestry Specialist Christian Walli discusses the importance of practical, hands-on experience for a career in forestry. Christian argues that working directly in the field, alongside a formal university education, provides an essential understanding of the realities of forestry work and the people who carry it out. - Christian Walli, spĂ©cialiste forestier chevronnĂ©, explique l’importance de l’expĂ©rience pratique dans une carriĂšre en foresterie. Il soutient que le travail direct sur le terrain, en complĂ©ment d’une formation universitaire, permet de comprendre les rĂ©alitĂ©s du mĂ©tier et le quotidien des personnes travaillant dans la foresterie.
