We care about protecting the healthy, mature trees that are increasingly being destroyed due to large-scale infill housing.

We urge city staff and politicians to support and enforce two by-laws that relate to trees on municipal and private property.

We invite citizens to get involved in advocating for protection of healthy, mature trees in Kitchissippi Ward.
