This past season, 200,000 tree seedlings were planted in Gros Morne National Park in areas where the forest was impacted by prolonged over-browsing by moose. This forest restoration initiative started in 2023 and so far, almost 1 million trees have been planted in the park! How are seeds collected? How are tree seedlings grown? How and where are trees being planted? How does this forest restoration project contribute to the mitigation of the effects of climate change? Join us live to meet the forest health team, visit the greenhouse, join tree-planters in the field, witness the tree-planting helicopter operations, and more!
