Tree Planting with the Métis Nation of Ontario

On September 23, the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority (UTRCA) joined the Métis Nation of Ontario (MNO) in a community tree planting on UTRCA owned lands adjacent to Fanshawe Reservoir. The MNO planted 40 native trees including red oak, black cherry, sugar maple, black walnut, hackberry, red maple, and white pine. This planting marks the second year we have partnered with the MNO to naturalize this area, increase biodiversity, and help create a wildlife corridor. We look forward to continue working with the MNO in future years!
