National Tree Day - Tree Canada

Celebrate Trees Across Canada!

Every September, on the Wednesday of National Forest Week, we come together for National Tree Day—a day to honour the beauty, strength, and vital role of trees in our lives. More than a celebration, it’s a call to action! Plant, learn, and make a lasting impact on our environment.
