The Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority (SVCA) is holding its annual Arbour Day Tree Sale, Saturday, April 30, at the Sulphur Spring Conservation Area, south of Hanover.

“It’s been incredibly popular over the years”, said Jim Penner, manager of forestry, “and it’s a great opportunity for landowners to pick up a few trees for their yard! We’ve got a wide variety of species to choose from and three different size groups, including seedlings, whips and landscape stock.”

Doors open at 8 a.m. sharp. Tree purchases are on a first come, first served basis. Coffee and donuts will be available for purchase.

Last year, Saugeen Conservation sold 5,440 seedlings, 213 wildlife shrubs, 131 hardwood whips, and 161 landscape stock.

“It’s a great time of year to plant trees,” said Penner, “and it’s also an excellent opportunity to ask staff questions about trees, the Forest Management Incentive Program and our many other forest services. Staff will be on hand throughout the event.”
