Boost your farm with trees now

Looking to transform your farm and contribute to a greener tomorrow? The 50 Million Tree Program (50 MTP) offers an incredible opportunity to not only increase your land's value but also to play an important role in environmental conservation.

Trees do amazing things for your farm. They help keep the soil strong, make the water clean, and give animals places to live. Trees can also protect your land from too much wind and snow. Plus, they can make your farm worth more money and a fun place to be outdoors.

While there may be costs involved, the 50 MTP significantly subsidizes these, covering 50% to 90% of total costs depending on the project. It's a small price for a lasting impact on your farm's value and the environment.

How Can You Join?

It's simple. If you have space for at least 500 trees, you're in! Whether it's half an acre of open land or 1,000 metres for windrows or buffers near water, there's room for greenery. And don't worry about the types of trees or how to plant them; everything is tailored to your land and goals.
