April 07, 2021

Our eighth annual tree giveaway will be taking place again this spring! Montreal West residents may purchase a tree for a $10 administrative fee. A limited quantity of trees will be made available on a first come, first serve basis. Trees will be delivered to your home the week of May 16th and must be planted by the residents themselves on their own property (instructions will be provided). Please note, however, that these trees cannot be planted on land that belongs to the Town, i.e. the area between the property line and the sidewalk.

Which species options are available?

The species options being offered this year are indicated below. You will be asked to provide your second and third choice of species in the unlikely event that your first choice is not available. (Click on each tree for more information about the species).

How do I order a tree?

Fill out the reservation form if you are interested in purchasing a $10 tree. Alternatively, you may call Public Works at 514-485-8597. We will be accepting orders between April 12th at 8:30 a.m. to April 21st at 4:30 p.m. or until quantities have run out. Maximum of one tree per household.
