One of the services we like to offer at Emondage Montreal is tree planting. Isn't this activity a unique experience? There are many reasons. Trees are essential to life, they brighten up our space, they provide us with countless benefits... it doesn't matter, because, in any case, there is something touching about trees. This is certainly why they are so often given on birthdays or to commemorate deaths. 

Creating a pleasant environment

There's nothing like planting a tree to bring life and quiet to our busy days. You also know how much birds cannot do without trees. They live in them, they take shelter from danger, they sing, they play, they compete with each other in the midst of their little cries of alarm. A varied and charming show, isn't it? Even we humans don't mind enjoying the shade cast by a tree with a huge canopy or cooling off under the foliage in hot weather. You can add your own experiences to this incomplete list, as it can grow, when it comes to good reasons to plant a tree. 

Offset greenhouse gas emissions

Reforestation is also one of the easiest ways to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The explanation is simple: trees absorb CO2.​

Offer a tree

Besides, haven't you ever struggled to find the right gift? To someone who already has everything or whom you don't know well, for example? In this case, don't get it into your head: just give a tree! It's a lasting gift, so it will bring benefits for a long time. There is a good chance that the person who has received this unique gift will think of you when he or she looks at it. 

The economic reason

When properties are for sale, those with trees sell for the most money. Landscaping is increasingly encouraged. The fashion to cut them down is a thing of the past. We now want to bring nature into our homes and enjoy it after our busy days. Cold concrete alone would be a sorry sight. So it's better to add some green. Not to mention the fact that trees can help lower heating and cooling bills if they are placed in a way that takes advantage of their energy saving properties. 

Filter the air, regulate the temperature

In addition, trees store carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Another thing they store is pollutants from the air. Their foliage provides welcome cooling in times of heat waves, for example. Municipalities take advantage of this in their strategies to fight heat islands.  ​

Education of children

Children love trees. Normally, they don't hesitate to ask you questions about them to feed their insatiable curiosity. Trees are a kind of assistant in the education of children. You may not see the time go by to encourage them to observe and compare the different species on your property. They will see them develop over time. They will enjoy touching the various leaves of deciduous trees or the softness of buds emerging in the spring, cedars, thorny trees ... They will see their transformations, and if it is fruit trees, they will be even more delighted to see the fruits appear as if by magic and crunch their teeth. ​

Erosion and noise blocker

The list of benefits that trees bring us is already long. Apart from the happy moments they bring us, their aesthetic aspect, their benefits in terms of health, air quality and natural temperature control, what else can they bring? Several more. They are also noise attenuators when they are aligned along highways for example. When trees are aligned along the shoreline, they are a measure against erosion. 

The relaxing element

And there's more. Studies have already shown that when patients are hospitalized and have a view of the landscape through their window, they recover faster than those who do not. It is difficult not to agree with this effect. Who hasn't experienced the calming impact of trees in their own lives? To imagine being in nature in our own backyard, to admire the beauty of trees, to hear the music of the wind rustling through their leaves, to delight in the song of the birds that chirp in them, to savor their refreshment, to smell their scent, to gently touch their bark, to feel their solidity... these are all assets that we cannot do without ​
