This year, Montreal West residents may purchase a tree for a $20 administrative fee until March 6, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. A limited quantity of trees will be made available on a first come, first serve basis. Maximum of one tree per household.
The trees will be delivered in mid-May, an e-mail will be sent to let you know the exact date. The tree will be placed in front of your property on that day. Residents must plant the trees themselves on their property in Montreal West, and not elsewhere (for example at their cottage). Planting instructions will be provided. Please note that these trees cannot be planted on the municipal right-of-way, i.e. the space between the property line and the sidewalk.
We also invite you to share photos of your tree with the Town, along with updates on its health over the years. This valuable information will help us improve the selection of species offered in future editions.
