The Home Tree Giveaway is Currently Closed

Thank you for helping us plant over 500 trees in 2023! Check back in spring 2024 for updates on the Home Tree Giveaway.

Plant a Native Tree in Your Yard

Brighten your community and your yard. Homeowners in eligible neighbourhoods can request a free tree that CVC’s home planting team will deliver and help plant.

Planting trees on your property provides shade and privacy, adds beauty and colour, creates habitat for pollinators and birds and helps reduce the impacts of climate change. Plant more than one to add layers or create a grouping. Additional trees are available for purchase at time of order.

Eligibility details for the 2024 Home Tree Giveaway will be available soon.

Giveaway neighbourhoods are selected based on current CVC and municipal priorities to best address issues like climate change and flood resilience. Neighbourhoods are subject to change.
