Planting for the Future | Field Notes | Parks Canada

Carbon? Captured.
Habitats? Restored.
Well-being? Boosted.
And biodiversity? Thriving.

From seed to sanctuary, Parks Canada is restoring nature with purpose. Across 26 sites nationwide, we’re planting the right trees in the right places—renewing ecosystems not just for today, but for generations to come. In the Atlantic regions, we’re even collecting seeds on-site to help trees at risk and build a stronger future forest.

Because planting trees isn’t just adding beauty to our protected areas—it’s about addressing climate change, creating safe havens for wildlife, and giving you more places to breathe deep, explore, and connect with nature.

Grab a shovel and dig deeper with us! Tune into our 2 Billion Trees vlog to see how Cape Breton Highlands National Park is planting the future… literally!
