2024 Update
In 2024, 65 new trees were planted tree was near the Camperdown Road area of Georgian Trail. The variety of trees include Freeman Maple, Ironwood, Bur Oak, Chinquapin Oak, American Basswood and American Elm, black cedars and white spruce
In 2023, Tree Trust TBM and Tree Trust Meaford partnered with the Georgian Cycle and Ski Trail Association for a three-year tree-planting program! The program will focus on planting and watering bare root and container-sized deciduous and coniferous trees, from two to six feet tall, along sections along the Georgian Trail that most need an enhanced tree canopy due to ash tree removal or other existing gaps.
The Trail is one of the region’s most important recreation assets. This new program will enhance the beauty of this unique multi-use route, while also helping to expand our tree canopy, for long-term ecological and climate change benefits.
Trees were planted on the Georgian Trail to the east and west of Christie Beach Road. Cedars, Junipers, American Elm, Swamp White Oak, Northern Catalpa and Bitternut Hickory were chosen as most suitable for this location
