One Birth, One Tree - une naissance, un arbre

Just have a baby?

Did you know that the city of Laval has some interesting initiatives in place to celebrate the birth of your baby? For those of you out there who like the idea of planting a tree to commemorate your child's birth, you should look into the city's "une naissance, un abre" program (scroll down their page for the form).

Added bonus for those of you in new homes, the tree is on the list of approved trees for your front yard so you can kill two birds with one stone when you apply!
