Everyone Loves Trees! Ecology Ottawa and RBC are hosting workshops to introduce Tree Ottawa and the scope of our work to the residents of Nepean, Kanata, and Orléans. A range of experts will present on topics such as the Emerald Ash Borer and the City of Ottawa's tree planting program; the benefits and considerations of planting local indigenous trees; and on how to organize a successful tree planting event in your neighbourhood. You'll also get a chance to meet some of our Tree Ottawa Champions, and your local councillor:
Tuesday, January 20th 7:00-9:00PM (RBC Centrepointe: 117 Centrepointe Dr, Nepean)
Tuesday, January 27th 7:00-9:00PM (RBC Terry Fox/Hazeldean: 500 Hazeldean Rd, Kanata)
