Supported by the Toronto Parks and Trees Foundation, SERRA is committed to helping our neighbourhood enhance our green space and increase our tree canopy.
Register to receive a FREE TREE OR SHRUB, then pick it up at the Church of the Transfiguration, 111 Manor Road East, on Saturday, October 13th, 2018 between 1:00 and 3:00 pm.
All trees are locally sourced and their seeds were collected from the local seed zone, which ensures they will be hardy in our region and support local bird and insect life.
