Tree Trust is a made-in-Centre Wellington program supporting legacy trees growing in communities in Southern Ontario.

Thank you to the two organizations who helped us launch Tree Trust
TreeTrust.ca is grateful to the clever folks at Pearl Street Communications for their support of our program. All our great Tree Trust messaging, branding and creative is thanks to their generous support and belief in working with the communities they serve. You can learn more about Pearl Street, their commitment to the BCorp movement and more of their change-making work at pearlstreet.ca.
We would also like to thank the Jack Kimmel Fund of the Canadian Tree Trust for supporting this innovative pilot project. The Jack Kimmel International Grant Program, championed by the Canadian TREE Fund, honours the late Jack Kimmel who was the former Director of Parks for the City of Toronto. He is remembered for his contribution of 46 years of leadership to the ISA and its Ontario chapter. Jack Kimmel grants provide much needed funding to arboriculture and urban forestry researchers all over the world.
