Trees Being Planted In East Saint John


The Atlantic Coastal Action Program and TD Friends of the Environment Foundation are marking National Forest Week today.

Close to six hundred trees will be planted on the of Little River in East Saint John.

ACAP Executive Director Tim Vickers tells CHSJ News, this is a great event to take part in.

Vickers adds along with the improved look, the trees will provide a chance for the native species to return, also provide shade, food and help hold some of the eroding banks in place.

The trees have been donated by J.D. Irving and the Provincial Tree Nursery in Kingsclear.
