Oakvillegreen volunteers plant 840 trees on Earth Day More than 100 volunteers dug in at a tree planting event at Nipigon Trail and Pelee Woods to celebrate Earth Day on Saturday, April 22. Oakvillegreen Conservation Association hosted the event, in partnership with the Town of Oakville. Volunteers from community groups such as the Cub Scouts (1st Trafalgar), the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Halton, and the Oakville Newcomers Club, along with many families and individuals, joined in to help plant a total of 840 native trees, according to Oakvillegreen Executive Director Giuliana Casimirri. Nipigon Trail and Pelee Woods are part of the Town of Oakville' s Woodland Hazard Abatement Program to manage woodlands affected by the emerald ash borer (EAB) beetle. The trees that were planted along the trail by volunteers contribute to an ongoing effort to help regenerate forest biodiversity and keep the invasive common buckthorn (Ramnus cathartica) at bay, said Casimirri. 35 | Thursday, April 2 7 , 2 0 1 7 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com see More on p.38 Interlocking & Concrete Specialists Landscaping Ltd · · · · Volunteers with Oakvillegreen Conservation Association dug in on Earth Day, Saturday, April 22, to help plant 840 native trees at Nipigon Trail and Pelee Woods, part of the Town of Oakville's Wodland Hazard Abatement Program to manage woodlands affected by the emerald ash borer (EAB) beetle. | Oakvillegreen photo Pebble Concrete · S tam ped Concrete Interlocking · Flagstone · W alkw ays G arage Floors · Patios · Drivew ays Curbs (French) .
