Canada’s official National Tree Day was held on Sept. 21 and from its inception in 2011, the City of Moose Jaw has been holding an annual Tree of Significance program to recognize a significant tree in our local urban forest.
After reviewing nominations, the Parks and Recreation department officially announced their choice for the award: A mature ornamental crabapple tree located at 680 MacDonald St W.
This tree was nominated because of its beauty, perfect shape and substantial size.
All Trees of Significance since the program’s inception in 2011 may be seen on the city website.
The Parks & Recreation Department encourages Moose Jaw residents to take notice of, and appreciate, our urban forest.
