Toronto Tree Re-planting

(Question)

The city referred me to you. We are having a tree cut down & I understand you are able to replant one for us. We are interested in a white birch tree but it has to be 50 mm caliper. Can you please advise on the cost for this & how I arrange for this to happen? We are in etobicoke. Thank you

Thank you for contacting the Toronto Master Gardeners. Providing plants and labour in gardens are not services that we provide, however I have a couple of suggestions for you.

There is a wonderful non-profit program in Toronto called LEAF that has a backyard tree planting program for native trees and shrubs. Paper birch is one of the trees that they have, but I don’t know the size. Here is their website:

The Landscape Ontario website has listings and information about their members who work in the horticultural trades, including Arborists and Tree Care companies who source and plant trees. Here is a link to this website :

Good luck with replacing your tree !
