Shrubs and Trees at Discount Prices & Free Advice to Go With Them

Did you know that you can order shrubs and trees to re naturalize a portion or all of your lakefront at discounted prices and then get free advice on how to plant them?

A re naturalized shoreline absorbs toxins and nutrients before they can enter and harm your lake.

The Haliburton Highlands Stewardship Council provides the shrubs and trees and provides advice on how to plant them when you pick your trees up in the spring.
