As we roll into the second half of summer and continue experiencing lifted COVID-19 restrictions, there is a lot to be excited about. Whether you’re using these freedoms to reconnect with family and friends, dine out at a local restaurant, or explore our beautiful country, once again we are experiencing an abundance of change.

Whether it’s walking through a park as you run errands, planning a forest hike with friends, or exploring provincial parks – make it a priority to stay close to trees and enjoy the benefits they offer as we establish our new normal.
What’s more? We don’t need to maintain two meters of distance from trees.
