Want a New Tree? LEAF it to the City!

The City has partnered with Local Enhancement and Appreciation of Forests (LEAF) to offer backyard tree planting services to Toronto residents. LEAF offers native deciduous trees, evergreen trees or shrubs, with either a full-service planting option or a do-it-yourself option. You can get a new tree planted at a subsidized cost! 

LEAF provides residents with the choice of a five to eight foot tall native deciduous tree or a two to four foot tall native evergreen tree. The full-service option is for backyards only and costs range from $160 to $230 per tree (+HST). If you are interested in planting the tree yourself, you will receive a virtual consultation with a LEAF arborist. The do-it-yourself option is available for front, side and backyards and costs range from $110 to $180 per tree (+HST).

More than 130 residents participated in community safety meetings hosted by my office and Toronto Community Housing (TCHC) this spring in St. James Town and Moss Park. The meetings brought together residents, TCHC staff, Toronto Police Service, the City's Violence Intervention and Support Unit, Fred Victor, and Unison Health and Community Services to discuss local safety concerns and identify solutions.
