 Did you know that the simple presence of trees is beneficial to our health? Of course, trees and plants reduce temperatures, smog and air pollution. But having a beautiful, shady place to walk and explore in the middle of a city has also been shown in research to lower stress, encourage exercise, and even result in fewer cases of anxiety and depression!
Don't miss the stunning Year of the Forest display at the show, presented by the Ontario Forestry Association, Trees Ontario, Tree Canada and LEAF. Strolling through the calming, fascinating environment, you'll learn about all the crucial ways that forests contribute to our everyday lives, from providing clean air and water, housing and recreation, medicine and food, employment and even a way of life. Explore the Year of the Forest displays, and find out how you can participate in The International Year of the Forests while you're at it!
All types of forests demand conversation and sustainable development initiatives. Learn more at the Year of the Forest Display, and you’ll be supporting The International Year of Forests (named by The United Nations General Assembly) while you’re at it!
