Urban Forests and Communities: Connected for a Resilient Future

These living systems play a key role in mitigating the impacts of climate change and are sustained through collective stewardship.

August is Tree Check month!

The video below will guide you through a full tree check.

If you discover the following signs and symptoms in your elm or ash tree, take a photo, note the location of the tree and promptly call 311 or the STOPDED Hotline at 1-877-837-ELMS (3567).

Alternatively you may complete an online report to your local 311 dispatch centre.

  • Drooping and yellowing of tree leaves on top of tree canopy on one or more major branches. Will dryout become brown and remain on the tree

  • D-shaped exit holes in bark

Driven by curiosity and built on purpose, this is where bold thinking meets thoughtful execution. Let’s create something meaningful together.
