Welcome to the NPCA's Get Involved portal!

The Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority has partnered with local community groups, environmental agencies, and government organizations that share a common interest in helping Canada reach its goal of planting 2 Billion Trees for a better tomorrow. Together we have formed the Niagara Peninsula Tree Planting Partnership, striving to bring as many trees to the Niagara Peninsula watershed as possible.

In early 2023, we launched the 'Trees For All' campaign, seeking private landowner to express their interest in tree plantings opportunities on their property to include as part of a planting grant application and to help shape the Trees For All program. More than 800 landowners in Niagara, Haldimand, and Hamilton registered... THANK YOU.

Using this planting opportunity inventory, we submitted funding applications to both the Federal 2 Billion Trees Small Scale Rural and Urban/Suburban tree planting streams in June 2023, with aspirations to plant 1 million trees across the Niagara Watershed by 2031.

And now we wait for some good news!

    Tina asked over 1 year ago

    Hi Tina,

    We are planting this season however through our Restoration Grant Program which had an open call for applications last fall of which tree planting was an eligible project type.

    Trees for All will be looking to begin planting in 2024 which would be year one of a high-volume multi-year tree planting program for the Niagara Watershed based on the envelope of interest expressed by registrants through this campaign, and the public lands drive with our municipal partners.

    Hope that clarifies!

    Sincerely,

    Trees for All Team

    what does ARN stand for on the property registration form? Thanks

    Laureen asked over 1 year ago

    Hi Laureen, 

    ARN stands for 'Assessment Roll Number' which is the unique identifier for an 'assessment parcel' in the parcel fabric from the province we are using in the registration application.  Its how we are linking the contact and other information registrants offer in the registration form to our property mapping base and appreciate where interest has been expressed.

    Hope this clarifies!

    Hello BDJ,

    We'll take care of planting services for the most part however, absolutely, yes!  Trees for All anticipates there will numerous community planting opportunities emerging from the inventory of panting sites we validate from both the private and public land (municipal properties our partners identify for planting) campaigns    You can register to be a volunteer here and be notified when these and other opportunities emerge through the NPCA .

    Hi Leon,

    The trees that would be offered though this initiative would be native species appropriate for site conditions and would range from bareroot seedlings or whips to larger potter stock.

    Hi Maryann,

    In short, absolutely!  Great to hear of your past efforts and encourage you to register your interest.  We've been hearing a lot of the damage the emerald borer has done coming through the expressions of interest that has registered.  Your property sounds like a great planting opportunity!

    Exactly WHERE are these trees being planted.

    Patch asked over 1 year ago

    Hi Patch,

    Trees for All is looking to plant trees on private property where landowners are interested and allow.  The express your interest/register your property tool includes mapping indicates valued tree planting opportunity areas where increased to environmental co-benefits could be realized however should an landowner be interested in planting, where on their property will remain their decision ultimately.

    Our partners are also looking for opportunities on their public lands in collaboration with Trees for All as well.

    As a result both private and public lands are being considered at the discretion of the landowner.

    I hope this satisfies your question!

    Sincerely,

    Trees for All Team
