For more information on the species available, please look here. When making your selection, consider the following: where will you plant it? Will it thrive in that location? Remember to consider other plants/trees, power lines, and the full size of the plant you are selecting. 

The information collected on the registration form will be held confidentially for one year, at which time a survey will be sent to participants regarding their experience. This is done to inform and improve future planting programs and will contribute to the overall understanding of how the tree canopy in Toronto can be expanded. None of your information will be sent to the City of Toronto directly. 

Pick up will be at the fair on Saturday, May 30, 2026, between 11am – 3pm. There will be a tent dedicated for plant pick up at the fair. If you want to register for a plant, but won’t be able to pick it up at the fair, please contact rhspringfair@gmail.com and we can discuss making other arrangements with you. 

The Spring Fair team is excited to bring this initiative to our school community in partnership with the City of Toronto Environment, Climate and Forestry Division.
