Alternative Group in Brandon wants to celebrate their 25th anniversary by enhancing the community by planting 25 trees for service groups, schools, and non profit organizations.
In a media release, the company says “planting trees in our community will provide a lasting legacy and commitment to our community, and will provide shade and privacy, beauty and colour, create habitat for pollinators and birds, and helps reduce the impacts of climate change.”
They’re currently accepting entries to help determine the best locations for these 25 trees, so that they’ll thrive for years to come. Winners will be selected, and Alternative Group’s crews will plant the trees this year. They say “a place card celebrating our anniversary and listing our partners will also mark every tree.”
Alternative Group says “the contest wouldn’t be possible without the support of Aubin Nurseries and Accent Striping & Lettering.”
Community members who would benefit from this are encouraged to fill out the entry form at https://www.alternativelandscapingltd.com/celebrate
The deadline is April 15, 2023, and winners are to be announced May 1, 2023.
