RICHARDSON TREE PROGRAM
What is the Richardson Tree Program?
The Richardson Tree Program is a fund left by Frederick James Richardson in 1973 for the purpose of planting hard maple trees in the Township.
Who can get trees?
- Trees are available to any household in The Township of Adelaide Metcalfe. This program is on a first come first serve basis (preference will be given to those who did not receive trees in 2025). This will be the LAST year of the Richardson Tree Program.
- Each household will be limited to a maximum of three (3) hard maple trees at NO COST.
- The hard maple trees that will be delivered are between eight (8) and ten (10) feet tall and will come with planting tips/instructions to ensure a successful planting project.
When?
- Residents will be able to fill out the request form starting Monday September 14th, 2025 at 8:30am. Hardcopy forms are available at the municipal office.
- Staff will be in contact with the residents receiving trees to set up delivery dates in October.
