Corridor/Tree Plantings:
Each year, new H&AWOA
members’ properties are chosen
for plantings. Creating or
enhancing wildlife corridors,
riparian areas and significant
areas are always top reasons for
site selection. Haldimand and
Area Wildlife Corridor plantings
were started in 2004. We now
have a partnership between
H&AWOA, Haldimand Stewardship
Council, Canada Ontario
Agreement, OPG, Trees Ontario
Foundation, Niagara Peninsula
Conservation Authority and Trees
Unlimited.

CHAYCC Seedling Planting The Caledonia Hunters & Anglers Youth Conservation Club (CHAYCC) thanks H&AWOA for the tree seedlings given to the club. The children had a fun day planting the seedlings on the Caledonia Hunters & Anglers Association property, along the Grand River. To date all of the seedlings are healthy and growing. The Caledonia Hunters & Anglers Association are H&AWOA members.
CHAYCC hopes the trees will help to enhance the natural beauty of the property and assist in establishing the fact that the CHAYCC is dedicated in its conservation efforts. ( above photo by CHAYCC )
