Home Hardware Celebrates National Tree Day with Community Tree Plants Across Canada

“Year after year, we are inspired by the dedication of our Dealers’ commitment to bringing their communities together in moments of shared social responsibility,” said Kevin Macnab, CEO, Home Hardware Stores Limited. “For 31 years now, Home Hardware Stores Limited has been working alongside Tree Canada to plant trees and build beautiful Canadian communities that will be enjoyed by generations to come.”

Home Hardware Stores Limited has been a proud partner of Tree Canada since 1992. Over the years, Home Hardware Dealers have brought together thousands of volunteers to plant over 30,000 mature trees at schools, community parks, conservation areas, and in spaces that require restoration following wildfires, tornados, and other weather-related events.

“Home Hardware’s Community Tree Plant initiative truly embodies the spirit of National Tree Day - by coming together to plant trees where they live and work, Dealers from across Canada are taking action to leave a legacy that will benefit these communities now and for years to come,” says Nicole Hurtubise, CEO, Tree Canada.
