## About

Credit Valley Conservation looks after the Credit River watershed west of Toronto, from Orangeville down to Mississauga. Rural landowners can have trees and shrubs planted with up to the full cost covered, and homeowners in certain Mississauga, Brampton and Acton neighbourhoods can receive one free yard tree through the Neighbourhood Tree Giveaway. The fall 2025 giveaway has closed and the next round is planned for 2027.
