Laurierville Gets a Little Greener

The little town of Laurierville, Quebec appeared a lot larger on June 13th when a number of caring community members came out to plant over 1,580 trees. Being a small population of only 1,400 people, Laurierville prides itself on its greenery and was excited to take advantage of its MAJESTA and Tree Canada Trees by the Shore tree planting event in order to improve carbon capture in the area.

Christian Paradis, the Minister of Natural Resources, was on hand for the event and was impressed with the effort put forward by the small town. Thanks again to everyone who attended the event and showed up to lend their support!
