SUMMARY:Neighbourwoods
DESCRIPTION:What is Neighbourwoods? The city has very limited information about trees on private property. The purpose of Neighbourwoods is to gather information such as the type\, size\, and health of trees on private property\, as well as in some of our parks to help us plan better diversity in our tree canopy. Volunteers receive free training from forestry professionals to learn how to identify\, measure and assess the health of trees. \nThe Blackburn Neighbourwoods Program is launching its 3rd season. Volunteers will be trained to take inventory of the trees on private property in Blackburn Hamlet. Our next training session with Dr. Andrew Kenny will be May 25 and 26 at the Blackburn Community Centre from 9am to 4pm. \nEveryone is welcome\, even if you can only attend a portion of the training. Bring your lunch and dress for the weather as most of the training is outdoors. \nTo register or for more information about this program please contact Clifton Charie at treeinventory@blackburnhamlet.ca.

SUMMARY:Tree Giveaway
DESCRIPTION:Ecology Ottawa and BCA tree team will be handing out free saplings near the entrance to the Blackburn Metro store from 9am to Noon. \nWhat trees will we have available? \nWe’re going to have more tree species variety than ever before this year! This will include 22 species of native coniferous and deciduous trees—including more fruit\, nut\, berry\, and sap-bearing trees than ever to help address food security in the region. A full species list is coming soon! \nWe are proud to source all of the trees we distribute from the Ferguson Tree Nursery in Kemptville. They only grow native and proven non-invasive naturalized trees\, shrubs\, and perennials hardy for the south-central and eastern Ontario climate. \n*Please note: \n\nThe trees available through this program are between half a foot and a foot and a half tall.\nWe are not able to make any guarantees of which tree species will be at any given event. We will always do our best to bring as many different species as possible to each giveaway\, however\, we cannot guarantee that we will have every species on the 2022 list available at any one time.\nTrees are living things and Mother Nature doesn’t always want to follow our schedule. We appreciate your understanding in advance that the trees available through this program are subject to change based on nursery availability.
