The City of Vaughan’s urban forest – the trees we enjoy throughout the community in our yards, parks, ravines and more – is growing!
Today, a special event was held to plant 200 trees in North Maple Regional Park thanks to a $10,000 grant from Tree Canada. Mayor Steven Del Duca, Members of Council, City staff, community volunteers and representatives from Tree Canada were on hand to help out.
