The City of Toronto has partnered with the Arbor Day Foundation to provide residents with free trees and an innovative online mapping tool to help choose the best location to plant trees on their property.
The Community Canopy program runs twice a year in the spring and fall to provide residents with a rotating selection of native trees and shrubs. The trees and shrubs come in 1-2 gallon pots and range from 1-4 feet in height. The pickup locations for the Community Canopy program change every season to ensure everyone in the city has access to the event.
