Volunteers from Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority, TD Bank and the Saugeen Railtrail Association planted 150 trees along the Saugeen Railtrail from Concession 10 south the Plex in Port Elgin September 23.

TD Tree Days was met with perfect weather on Sunday, September 23 as volunteers ventured to plant 150 trees along the Saugeen Railtrail from the Concession 10 south to the Plex in Port Elgin.

In a September 23 submission, TD Bank purchased the tress as part of their TD Tree Days program from Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority and with the Saugeen Railtrail Association and community volunteers, various types of trees were planted along the trail.

The trees averaged in height from 2 to 4 feet and will provide not only their beauty but a wind and visual screen. The Saugeen Railtrail is heavily used by walkers, runners and cyclists providing a safe linear parkway in Saugeen Shores.
