As part of our 50th anniversary celebrations the NPCA launched the Simply Tree-mendous Challenge at April 30, 2009. The goal of the ‘challenge’ is to have residents, groups, service clubs and businesses plant 50,000 native trees/shrubs across the watershed over a 2 year period.
The ‘Simply Tree-mendous Challenge’ is a friendly competition between our watershed municipalities, with the focus on incorporating native species especially in urban environments. The program officially begins as of May 1, 2009 and will continue until April 30, 2011. The Conservation Authority will promote the competition and provide updates.

About the NPCA |
Established in 1959, the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority serves approximately 500,000 people and covers an area of 2,424 square kilometres encompassing the entire Niagara Region, 21% of the City of Hamilton and 25% of Haldimand County. The driving force behind the Conservation Authority movement was its grassroots land stewardship focus and involvement with water programs. Today, this vital commitment continues,as we strive to address the impact on the watershed from current human activities and the effects of urban growth and rural activities. Our programs focus on environmental protection and preservation and watershed management activities. These include planning, regulations, water quality monitoring and improvement through stewardship and restoration, community outreach, and conservation through land acquisition and public ownership.
