Background:
Victoria has about 150,000 trees and 34,000 of them are cared for by the City. Tree Appreciation Day is an annual tree planting event created by the City to endorse climate action and promote our urban forest.
We prioritize protecting our trees and conduct regular inspections so we can try to treat and maintain our existing canopy.
Our local trees:
🌳 Keep the air clean
🦅 Provide wildlife habitat
🌡️ Moderate temperature to help our community adapt to climate change
💧 Improve water filtration and reduce stormwater runoff
