Tree Canada’s National Tree Day Planting Event in Calgary

Event Description

Tree Canada is proud to partner with the City of Calgary to celebrate National Tree Day (NTD), presented by BMO! This is the biggest NTD celebration yet, with events taking place across the country during National Forest Week. Join us to plant trees and connect with nature in your community! Volunteers will help dig holes and plant 400 trees, shrubs, and non-woody plants. Volunteers will also assist with watering, mulching, and general site care. Tree Canada experts and volunteers will be on hand to provide guidance and answer your questions. We will also provide gloves and shovels for all participants.

By joining this free event, you’ll directly enhance biodiversity in your community by planting trees and plants that improve habitats, strengthen soil health, and support vital pollinators like bees and butterflies. Your efforts will help create vibrant green spaces that serve as wildlife refuges and beautify the neighborhood. Beyond environmental benefits, this is a unique opportunity to connect with others, learn practical skills about tree care, and contribute to a shared community goal.
